Work
I retired more than a year ago after 38 years in social work. I was 60 at the time of retirement. When I was diagnosed four years ago I was sure I would not need to take the medicine they wanted me to take. I was also sure I was tough enough to keep working. I lasted about six months before I was

Anyone experience a gout flare-up when using Sinemet 25/100?
I had gout a few years ago and this is my first flare-up since. I started on Sinemet just about a month ago, have had several side effects, but this is one that bothers me a lot. Very painful. Anyone else have this? Also, I've been more grumpy than usual, dizzy, off balance, weird vivid dreams and headaches

Another form of sinemet. Dissolves in your mouth and gets into the system quicker

Requip, Sinemet, swollen ankles and more...anyone else have similar problems?
Dx 2010 having had symptoms ( resting tremor, sleeping difficulties, overactive bladder and general fatigue)since 2004. As things were clearly progressing I was then prescribed 8mg Requip Modutab ( controlled release)for two and half years before it was increased to 10 mg when symptoms became less well

Not diagnosed but recommended Sinemet.
Hello, Over the last few years I have suffered from fatigue, cramp in the hands, calves and feet, lack of strength and internal vibrations in the muscles. I have noticed my muscles have become very defined and thinner in the arms and legs. It was a bit unexpected as Parkinson's wasn't mentioned but

Is weight gain a Side effect of Madopar?
I was diagnosed with PD 8 years ago and was taking most recently Stalevo & Sifrol to control it thinking at the time Sifrol was doing me more harm than good. Last August I had DBS but still wound up on Sifrol And Sinemet. After a few months it was finally decided that I should wean myself off sifrol

energy
I'm taking sinemet five times a day. I have no energy and can't have caffeine. Any good suggestions for regaining energy. Take two walks a day, go to gym but end up falling asleep and not much energy after noon.

How do i change from Ropinirole to Pramipexole
As the Sinemet were causing more problems than the Ropinirole and i don't see the consultant for a few months yet my GP has agreed to put me on Pramipexole to see how that goes. The augmentation from the Ropinirole was getting worse. My question is can i just stop the one and start the other or do i
