DBS Surgery
I am considering the DBS surgery, as I am now taking 8 (25/100)
Sinemet
and 1 (50/200) Extended Release
Sinemet
each day. I live alone and wonder if that would be a problem. Would love to hear from folks that have had this surgery. Thanks!

Sinemet dose
I am on 25-200
sinemet
3 times per day. Is this considered a large dose? I don't have a lot of symptoms as of yet. Thank you.

More off time and freezing
She takes
Sinemet
25/100mg four times a day along with 1 x Mirapex. She`s having more problems during her off time between
Sinemet
doses and has started to freeze on occasions which has caused her great concern.

Confused at 54?
Does
Sinemet
help with cognition? The only thing that he seems to think helps him is Concerta which wakes him up. His sexual dysfunction seems to be physical and mental, can't do it and doesn't care that he can't. I feel like I'm living with an alien sometimes.

Liquid Sinemet
My doctor prescribed me to take
Sinemet
and Comtan every 2 hours, but I am afraid to have dyskinesia because it just
sinemet
over 13 pills +
sinemet
ER at night. I already have dyskinesia, but not all the time. I understand that to take every 2 hours
sinemet
it no time to have a meal.

Has anyone got low blood pressure?
I am on
sinemet
tablets. I am also on Prednisolone for GCA. Yes, I am trying to increase my fluid intake and have a bag of crisps on most days. Any other ideas? I am 85.

MSA or Parkinson's? I'm not sure
Medications such as
Sinemet
do not seem to alleviate my symptoms. These are difficulty with balance and walking, and urinary incontinence. I find writing and typing much harder than three years ago.

Sinemet or Not???
He has wanted me on
sinemet
for quite some time but I have prolonged due to worry of long term side effects. Biggest affliction is the stiffness and rigidity. Is it worth taking and are others helped by it?

Another failure?
Sinemet
was a dud, so I'm trying the timed release version. For the first two weeks I was to take a pill at 9:30 a.m. Yesterday I stepped up per instructions to one at 9:30 a.m. and another at 2 p.m. This morning when I woke up I thought I had gone completely bonkers.

Finding Joy in Parkinson's
Anyway, with the diagnosis and
Sinemet
, Louis is not jealous of other men. Now, Louis has had 2 very bad hallucinations, one of which scared me so much. He was put on Nuplazid and those have stopped. We are still battling PD on a daily basis - like all of you.

3 years on ... I fear my positivity ...
Lots of exercise - non-contact boxing, Nordic walking with poles, Irish set dancing, gym with a trainer - the introduction of
Sinemet
in November 2015, taken 3 times daily and the completion of the 5 volume "Does it hurt, Granny? and other stories".

Sinemet reactions
So I'm take
sinemet
at night with my melatonin and magnesium. Also take supplements since cardopa robs you of vit b.. Seems like
sinemet
is making things worse and my tremors when coming down off of
sinemet
. I'm thinking it's levadopa induced Distonia. Any oppions or experiences.
