Having side effects from taking Mucuna Pruiens, Sinemet and Rasagiline
I have just started taking Mucuna Pruiens and Sinement with a new prescription of Rasagiline. I have had two episodes where I have felt overly energized and a rush of energy with no Parkinson's symptoms but lasts about an hour and a half and feels as if I am on some type of speed. Has anyone taken

Sifrol
Today, my neurologist added Sifrol and increased
Sinemet
dosage from 3 to 4times a day. I was Dx with PD in 2014, September and I will be 61 years old soon.

Anatomy of a Myth
In describing JP's experience with
Sinemet
or "l-dopa" (an event which incidentally took place 25 years ago, in 1992), Doidge claims, "initially he [JP] had a good response to it, but then he started to get side effects and the response started to wane".

Cruising
I am on
sinemet
25/100 3x per day. Last October I went on a weeks cruise which was lovely but when I got off the ship I felt like I was walking on a trampoline for about a week after (known as Mal de Debarquement Syndrome). After a week it went completely.

Risk of long-term levodopa/carbidopa side effects
Changes in the amount or timing of the dose will prevent these side effects but most experts now recommend alternatives to
Sinemet
, such as the dopamine agonists, and use
Sinemet
only when the alternative fails to provide sufficient relief.

Wearing off early
Ever since I was diagnosed 5 years ago, wearing off has been a problem..I started taking
Sinemet
when I was diagnosed and I believe have been mismanaged since..

Parsing Parkinson's
I wondered if the dyskinesia and tremor reflected too much dopamine in my system so, with the agreement of my doctor, I cut back my
Sinemet
from 4.5 tablets per day to 4.0. Both issues were somewhat, although not completely, resolved. Great! What about the other people in the trial?

Sinemet switch off
I was Dx with pd 3 years ago and on
Sinemet
3x a day. I am a follower of John Pepper's fast walking and walk 2 or 3 days a week. Normally, I go to gym or take fast walking one or two hours after taking
Sinemet
. I usually walk about 4.5 km in 55 minutes.

Misdiagnosis
The neurologist wants to get me off
Sinemet
, in small doses. Right now when I feel a panic attack coming, I take 1/2 beta blocker pill, and I am good. I will be checking in to see how you are all doing. You are all mighty warriors!!
