Stalevo side effects
Hi, I've been put on Stalevo as
Sinemet
not working all the time but have found it upset my stomach and gave me legs drained of energy when I exercise! Do others suffer similar side effects?

I was diagnosed 5 yrs. ago. Had DBS 2 yrs ago. My movement is pretty good, but I have CONSTANT anxiety issues. On sinemet and requip.
Clenching of my left foot is bad, and with the angst I'm never comfortable. Any one else?

Has anyone been able to retire on PD disability although you are not quite disabled yet?
My current symptoms include depression, tremor and lack of co-ordination in my left hand, which are resolved with
Sinemet
. But the
Sinemet
causes me to walk funny...like I'm stepping in high cotton.

Happy St. Pat's Day all! (All Irish on my mom's side:). Question for any/all on Sinemet
My PSP guy takes his
Sinemet
in the morning & afternoon. I realized that is when he is most agitated and out of control. And unfortunately, usually, it is in the car. Has anyone else noticed a correlation between taking it and violent behavior or agitation?

So I am new to this forum..I am 59 and was diagnosed in 2011 with PD. I am now on disability from a 30+ years as an oncology RN.

Sinemet
works but does anyone have the same difficulty managing their meds to offset their sx's if so please enlighten me

I'm not sure whether what I experience is what people refer to as freezing.
I have been on quite a large dose of
sinemet
4 tablets 5 times a day but I felt over medicated and recently cut it back to 3 x 5 and have felt much better. However, I still have some "go slows" just not every day as it was before. Does this happen to anyone else?

RLS meds initiate RLS symtoms before suppressing them?
After several years of taking RLS medicines, most recently Rapinerole and now
Sinemet
(Carbidopa-Levo ER) both in combination with small dosage of Clonazepam.

Problems with medication
I also noticed I was losing my hair by the handfuls, so I went online and checked the side effects of
Sinemet
. Yes, hair loss was one of them. So were all the other problems I was having. I contacted my neurologist and he asked me a bunch of questions.

Is hair loss a possible side effect of Sinemet?
I have been on
Sinemet
since July and my hair has become very thin and getting thinner. I have a lot more difficulty now with various things, like getting dressed, then I did prior to diagnosis. My doctor isn't much help, not returning calls. Not at all sure what I should do.

Does anyone have any reliable information about ZANDOPA?
I have received a 200g jar of Zandopa - and just want to check out the insights of you good folks on this site to make sure that it will help me reduce my
Sinemet
safely. I have read that the Zandopa takes less time to kick than
Sinemet
, is longer in positive effect and causes minimal s/e.
