    Been on Rasagaline for 2 years. Just started Levadopa at half a pill for a week to determine my ability to tolerate.

    Superb (game-changing) discussion of dyskinesia (wriggling, writhing). I’d envisioned it as BIG - like arms flailing wildly. Thank you. I have a little wriggling. I didn’t know that was dyskinesia.

    I stress the importance of sticking to timings. Diet and keeping records. Protein will eventually get eventually you. i find a veg soup helps. Keep Protein to a mini level when taking. Just complete dbs, step 1 surgery and staples are removed out Monday 14th. Programming kicks off 22nd.
    Hence diet

    Laurie- i took it 25/100 and felt like a zombie. could I try titration by cutting the pill into fourth's would that be better? i started Mirapex and it helped but still am exhausted. really want C/L because it is the gold standard.

    Not me. A single 25/100 tab of Sinemet vanquishes me. It fatigues me massively: I go to bed, to sleep - especially if I eat. I despise it. I take it because without Sinemet, I can’t exercise.
    My neurologist has me taking Carbidopa (w/o Levidopa) but that doesn’t relieve nausea/fatigue. I also take Risagiline once a day.

    I don't want dyskanesia.
