Lewy Body
I'm feeling fearful that this is progressing quickly as I started 2 yrs ago with 1
Sinemet
daily. I've done some reading on Lewy Body... Does any one have any thoughts or have Lewy Body that can help me ?

Stiffness and jerky walking
Should I try increasing the
sinemet
? I am on steroids for Temporal Arteritis, but don't think it is related to this. My next hospital appointment isn't until September.

Need tips for weight gain
I take
sinemet
and an agonist which diminishes my appetite. Also more foods make me feel bloated so I avoid them. Also the protein restriction caused loss of muscle mass. All suggestions welcome.

Night
I usually take four
sinemet
during the day nothing at night, but now it's getting so bad at nighttime. I have to go tothe bathroom so many times and it's hard to walk. What does everyone do at night? Does everybody take medication at night too? And is the rytary helping anymore?

Weak knees and collapse
I am on eight
sinemet
(low dose) daily in divided doses. I am 84. I have now bought a 'walker', which gives me a bit more confidence.

Leg pain
I have tried adjusting my
Sinemet
and eating a banana every day, but at times I still have the pain. I do the Big and Loud therapy every day and am active. Does anyone have this problem?

MORE FRUSTRATED
Yes he is on
Sinemet
, if I spelled that right, along with his blood pressure meds. They took him off Amiodarone at the hospital last week to see if that is causing it but it doesn't seems to have made any difference. Is extreme weakness park of this horrible disease? I am getting no where fast.

sinemet
tablet to madopar liquid and Rose remarkably has been communicating again! Able to answer us and even answered a question on a quiz show on the t.v.! Nursing home is amazed as are we, could it be the change in medication? Anyone experienced this?

Sinemet
Mum finds everything unbearable and blames the
Sinemet
for everything, but really her symptoms have progressed and a lot of it is the disease sadly. Has anyone else had experience on
Sinemet
? Equally has anyone had experience of any other medication that has made a difference?

Memory loss
My husband increased his
sinemet
dose a month ago because he was having more noticeable off times. After that I noticed short term memory problems which are continuing to get worse. Is zandopa something to consider so he can lower the
sinemet
?
