Just for kicks, I asked Bing AI what bassofspades thinks about Parkinsons disease. Here’s what it came up with.
**Medication and Management**: They advocate for the use of medications like
Sinemet
to manage symptoms effectively. Bassofspades believes that starting medication can significantly improve quality of life by reducing stiffness and tremors². 3.

Levodopa only?
I was wondering if there are members of this forum who have been on large doses Levodopa - Madopar or
Sinemet
only - up to 1100 mg per 24h, for 5+ years.I would be grateful if you could comment on your present quality of life, and do you think that things could improve if other medications are added

Mucuna and carbidopa alone?
I am not taking
Sinemet
yet, as I’m trying to take a more natural approach. Has anyone taken this combo, and if so, could you please give me any ideas of dosages of carbidopa to take with one mucuna capsule? (Or Parts of a carbidopa tablet? ) Each tablet of carbidopa is 25 mg.

B1 HDT Protocol with Sinemet
Does anyone happen to know should the thiamine be taken before, after, or at the same time as
sinemet
?Or does it even matter?

Meds not working well again
My PD husband and has been taking 4 or 5
sinemet
50/250 CR for about a year and started using neuropro patch 2mg 6 months ago. He was on madopar for several years prior, but it was never right for him. Suddenly it seems his meds aren't working and the pd symptoms are severe again.

Entacapone causes diarrhea?
I’ve been taking Entacapone for exactly three months because of wearing off times about 45 minutes prior to next
Sinemet
dose. It has provided a modest improvement in my overall functioning. I’ve been taking it three times per day with 25/100 c/l.

Please could I ask what your thoughts are on Stem Cell Therapy?
She was then put on
Sinemet
Plus 25/100 mg. Since then her deterioration has been quite fast. Rigidity, stiffness, slow movement and exhaustion getting worse each month and can hardly walk around the house unless with aid.

Stalevo and incontinence.
I've been on
Sinemet
for 9 years. Entacapone introduced in February. Transferred to Stalevo over a period of four weeks, been on "all Stalevo" for about 5 days.

Can taking Sinemet when not needed cause PSP-like symptoms?
She was given her 'routine' medication,
Sinemet
, for her Parkinson's Disease? She'd never been treated for this before? She'd never been tested for PD before? To cut a long story short, she is now in a Residential Home, 'diagnosed' ( without appropriate scans) in January 2024 with PSP ?

Sinemet has saved my life, for now.
When you have no one competent to share your condition with and have some comfort, it is dangerous not to have
Sinemet
at hand. I had to run and get it while I was still sane enough to avoid taking another kind of pills.

Medication induced dementia
Apparently there are a number of things that can do this, including PD medication such as Carbilev or
Sinemet
. My wife is on 5 x 25/100 Carbilev and 1 x 50/200
Sinemet
SR per day. She also takes 5 x Mucuna capsules.

Anyone experience a wearing off cough/shortness of breath?
He currently takes 1.5 of a 25/100
sinemet
every three hours and a half pill at the two hour mark and a controlled release at night. He is off to the Dr this week and will ask to trial entacapone to see if it smooths things out and he can space the dose timing out more and reduce the dose.

Looking forward for your support
Started with
Sinemet
for 10 days but could not tolerate it and, since then, I am on 6 tablets of Sifrol 0.18 per day (2/2/2). This dose of sifrol improved my general symptoms by 90% but with balance and walking the improvement was approx 70% . I learned o live with it.

Mucuna without Sinemet?
Can anyone tell me how to get more symptom relief from just taking mucuna, (specifically NOW brand) alone, WITHOUT taking any
Sinemet
? I’ve read about green tea enhancing its effectiveness….any other ideas?

Back after a long time
This procedure significantly affected her baseline for responding and eating ( she had finally started eating a little, though the bulk of the nutrition goes through the G-tube) I want to restart Mucuna, but given that she can get dyskinesia even with a quarter tablet of
Sinemet
(25/100), I don't

Rethinking Parkinson’s Disease: could dopamine reduction therapy have clinical utility. (The article)
On the other hand, I also read here on HU about many PWPers who have been functioning well on
Sinemet
for as long as 20 years or even more.
