Hi Neenag
It's early morning so i'm sleepless in Wiltshire again, and I've been grinding my teeth again.......and I just can't seem to settle to any of the things that used to interest me......

Are you talking about my husband .............

He is just the same except his pain is in the knee .

I have recently found that he seems much worse about an hour after he takes his Sinemet . Been taking things into my own hands and reduced them slowly .

He is still very slow stiff legs collapsing . But his drooling and dropping off and mental ability much improved .

Do you have any other illnessess

Hi Neenag Are you on Sinemet? I am on 62.5 x 4 three times a day plus Mirapexin and my side effects or symptoms (not sure which) are very similar to yours.

Wonder where all the emotion comes from -until d/x 18 months ago, I am sure I was quite stable but now in tears at the slightest thing.

It is so difficult to know what are the effects of the medication and which p/d.

My husband is the same about all the things he needs me to do for him . Which are many ! .. I told him we have been married for 54 years and have been loving and caring for him since 1958 , hadn't he noticed before . lol

Obviously not as easy particulary at our age but there you go .. Wouldn't have it any other way ..

I am sure he would do his best for me if it were the other way around .
