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. The neurologist

DBS: Medtronic question re. voice
Hi everyone. As many of you know I had DBS last August. Didn’t reverse my symptoms 5 years as was touted by my neuro but patched me up to fight another couple of rounds. When I was switched on, after a day or so I noticed that it was much harder to speak: volume and articulacy were much harder to produce

Thanks for the replies to my previous post
Thanks for your replies to my first post everyone. Comforting to know I'm not alone in feeling overwhelmed by this, but I'm blown away by how many people are enduring this and find ectopics really debilitating. It's so sad that our feeling are dismissed as unimportant by people who have no idea what

pain?
Anybody else have pain on waking, from hips and legs up to arms & shoulders--not explained by exercise or lack thereof? Can barely hobble about the house to get my meds and feed the cat. Sometimes it helps to tighten all the muscles to form an upright posture--but as soon as I loosen them to move, it

The problematic 2nd dose of the day
Good evening. Wondering if anybody else experienced similar or if you’ve any idea why the following happens: my first CL of the day works reasonably well (although I only get two hours of relief from it). The second thought is really bad: after my first dose I go badly off (it’s been getting worse as

DBS awake or under general anesthesia
I've been told that for my DBS operation I will be under general anesthesia. I'm just wondering what others have experienced. I like the idea of a good sleep and waking to find the operation over but I was under the impression that when done awake the patient can indicate when the probes are correctly

Vagal a fib
I listened to a cardiologist on utube. He mentioned vagal a fib. Does any one what this is? It seems to be a younger cohort but I presume it comes with the usual meds. How can you find out if you have it? I seem to be able to stop a fib attacks with vagal manoeuvres and sometimes my a fib is brought

Collagen powder and increased stiffness?
Recently, my husband experienced a distressing episode of extreme stiffness. He described it as a sensation of having someone squeeze him at the base of his brain (he had DBS in 2022), causing him to feel extremely stiff in his head, shoulders, neck and arms. In general, stiffness is his issue, but

Advice needed
Hi, my wife has endometriosis and I am wondering just how exactly I can convince a Dr about the level of pain she is in? Her journey started with very heavy and long periods on average between 10-20 days of very heavy bleeding, then she would have 3-5 days without and then again 10-20 days bleeding

I am a PwP and 56 years old. I'm a bit overwhelmed with all of the information, sometimes conflicting, out there regarding treatments and supplements. I am trying to determine what to try first. I am a predominantly tremor parkie. I exercise regularly & eat well. I take levadopa 25/100 4x a day.

Diagnosis Anterior Cutaneous Nerve entrapment syndrome?
I had my ovaries removed in February 2020 via laparoscopy. I had had laparascopic diathermy and laser treatment for endometriosis in my 20s and 30s, but eventually taking the progesterone only pill meant I had no periods at all which was a massive result for me and I took them until I was 52. Unfortunately
