Why do I fall forwards?
I tried
Sinemet
3 years ago but never felt that it helped. Maybe I didn't give it enough time? I think I need to find a new neurologist. The business of falling forward bent at the waist makes me think of weak lumbar muscles.

Stalevo
My doctor just changed my prescription from
Sinemet
to Stalevo. Does anybody have experience taking Stalevo? I am afraid to have hallucinations with Stalevo.

RYTARY OR SINEMET, WHICH WORKS BEST AND CAUSES MILD OR NO DYSKINESIA OR DYSTONIA?
I need your honest opinion as regards Rytary and
Sinemet
,I am roughly 4yrs on this PD journey,and have been on
sinemet
with less severe side effects,until recently the ''on period'' of
Sinemet
decreased to 2hrs instead off initial 4 or 3hrs.I then had to dose up to 1200mg of Levodopa over 24hrs,still

Balancing diabetes with PD
I do think the
sinemet
makes him eat a bit compulsively and he seems to have got worse through lockdown yet he hasnt put any weight on. I know on this very informative forum that there are PD patients dealing with diabetes also. I value your advice.

Is anyone taking Apokyn for Off episodes that occur with Parkinson's disease?
Apokyn is used to help prevent Parkinson's symptoms during Off periods when the
Sinemet
has worn off. p

Any other PD people out there...your major PD symptom is toes curling up on both feet
Also, a few years after diagnosis, toe-curling started on the right foot also, so
Sinemet
controls both feet now...however, when I eat...an hour or 2 after eating, the toe-curling SOMETIMES starts up again, until the
Sinemet
kicks in.

How often is pain associated with PD?
The edema in my feet is annoying but not painful and I'm guessing it's due to
Sinemet
. I didn't have edema before starting
Sinemet
. So, How often is pain associated with PD?

DYSKINESIA vs DYSTONIA
I get severe abdominal wall muscle tightness when the next dose of
Sinemet
is due. It seems to improve about a half hour after taking the pill. I'm assuming that's from too little dopamine in my system and most people would call this "dystonia."

Constipation - Parkinsons, Sinemet or both ? Natural ways of treating constipation?
Mom has a G tube so it limits sometimes what we can give her in terms of fibre , even though she is getting completely organic food with no preservatives etc . All clean ingredients. I might start massaging her tummy with some essential oils , dont want to give her too many laxatives. Any suggestions

Explain festination please
I quit using
Sinemet
a month ago. I didn't feel any effects from the drugs; Dominant hand tremor was unchanged, Handwriting was dismal unless doing a crossword puzzle. Something about the individual squares made it easier to be somewhat legible. Thanks, kpo

Foot Dystonia stiffness
In the the beginning of my journey
Sinemet
helped with my leg dystonia. My entire leg is stiff and stiffness started in my right arm. I was going to buy magnesium spray on Amazon, but I do not know what the best kind to get. Does MM help? Thank you! Thank you very much!! Luba
