Madopar VS Sinemet
My MDS decided to switch me to Madopar after my 5yrs horrible experiences (side effects) with various grades of Sinemet. He is aware that Zandopa (a brand of Mucuna) gives me far better relief (based on my testimony) than the Sinemet. Hence, he doesn't have any issue with my mucuna usage and even prescribed

Trying Sinemet
Amazing how you can get different diagnosis from a new neurologist and start down a new treatment path with optimism. This neurologist is all for Carbidopa Levadopa and CBD and Cannabis. We saw some improvement in stiffness and increases in sleepiness and drooling. Apparently the concept that melanoma

CBD oil any good?
Has anyone used CBD oil for anxiety? My husband has ghastly attacks and is on Pregabalin (also for anti-epilepsy) but even at 500mg a day, the anxiety continues. He was put on Diazepam briefly recently but it had no effect except to make him sleepy. When he is calm I can cope with his Parkinson's (for

Meditation - A potential case of remission of Parkinson’s disease
Abstract: We present the case of a 78-year-old male who, 16 years ago, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD) by a neurologist. He initially presented with left-hand tremor, stooped posture, shuffling gait, and frequent falls, which eventually progressed to bilateral motor symptoms after 3 years

Not PD?
I am the caregiver for my spouse who was diagnosed with PD in 2013. He, like others on here had symptoms of Parkinson’s. They have never been what I considered severe with any of the symptoms. He is now 75 and was put on Sinemet 25/100. He took a total of 6 pills a day for quite some time. I have been

When I take sinemet for the first 45 minutes to an hour I have terrible tremors anyone has a solution for it
Does taking a higher dose of sinemet help to reduce tremors and will it kick in quicker?

How I reduced my Parkinson’s meds by 50% and beat my addiction to dopamine
Fifteen years ago I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Within a year I was taking the standard medication associated with the disease, dopamine in its various forms (levodopa/carbadopa, aka. Sinemet). Like most sufferers of PD, my need for Sinemet, grew and grew until I was taking 200 mg every

Don't keep fixating on dopamine to alleviate your lack of energy.
Dopamine is just one(1) neurotransmitter within your system's complex of neurotransmitters. Unfortunately, many have over exaggerated its importance in treating PD and related energy depletion issues. It isn't that simple. If it were, we would all just dump buckets of dopamine drugs down our mouths and

Sinemet, how much is too much?
I'm wondering is there is a scientific guidance or a rule of thumb about how much Sinemet is too much for PWP. I have been very careful about the intake of C/L because of the side effects will come with the long time use of this drug but my panic button was activated when I read a post from a member

I’m new here
Hello, I was diagnosed in 2011, at age 39. I was able to manage my symptoms quite well until about 18 months ago using only an agonist. I started on Sinemet at the beginning of last year, but within 6 months had increased from 3 tablets a day to 9 and started experiencing wear-off in about 2 hours.

Anyone suffered with Sinemet induced dystonia?
I posted a few weeks back that my symptoms were suddenly worse. However I've come to realise that I'm actually suffering dystonia due to taking sinemet. I take just 3 X 100/25mg a day and have been since January. In June I noticed that I had started to feel stiffness in my shoulder and left thigh several
