Hi everyone when me and the wife are doing the bad thing if I'm standing up doing it I find my right arm and leg shake uncontrolably making very hard to stand up and I feel that I'm going to fall over lol I know it's a funny question to ask but does anybody out there have problems like this or is this just normal with pd I've been dx nearly 3 years now thanks for listening

Wow a new position to try!!

You have not told us your age and believe me that is relevant.

Seriously though, my tremor goes of the richter scale whenever I get
1)excited 2) agitated 3) aggravated 4) tired. All four are now part of my sex life.

I was thinking yesterday that I have seen very little regarding this topic so I was very pleased to see your post today. Let's hope that it is picked up by others and broadened into a full and frank discussion.

I think that happens anyway if you do it standing up!!!!

Alright bogman I'm nearly 48 it must be the excitment then that makes me tremor worse or the fact I'm getting someAfter4 weeks,my tremor is only really bad for a few minutes during and then it goes back to normal as can be,I also suffer like ur self when I'm Tired it can be abit of a ***** & christo ur probably right standing up always gives u a knee trembler how do u suffer when ur doing the bad thing christo thanks for posting

Seriously Kev, I think it is excellent therapy for PD sufferers, as long as you can manage it. I struggle to do anything other than the missionary position, although it works quite well with me underneath and wifey on top. You just have to see what works best for you.


Hope the moderators don't mind us discussing this.

In the words of the song,

Bird's do it, bees do it, even educated fleas do it.......

If the mods were to censor this ( and I don't think for a moment that they will) then I for one am off!

For me I can handle the trembling because it's very difficult to fall of the floor.

The bigger issue is the rampant libido which can go on without end and I mean this in th literal sense.

Still it is better than prem!

Thank God for the free Viagra on the NHS, LOL.

If Cameron withdraws(lol) this provision he can stick his policies vertically.

Interesting point. My personal experience regarding Da's is at 3.1 MIRAPEXIN, rampant libido following reduction when reduced to 1.5. Now on 2.1 and functioning naturally although failure to climax is a recurring issue.

Hello Bogman,

My husband used to have the same problem all action but failed to complete, we have tried many situations and what with my chronic back condition and his pd and apo pump flapping around it was always quite a effort Plus when starting meds for the day I always left the room pretty quickly other wise I would never get out.He reacts like this when switching on after every bad off state.
This causes problems when you have carer's and we always had a note on his bedroom door 'his time' so that he would not be disturbed, this is also causing problems at the nursing home as they don't understand he can't help fiddling, I say as soon as you see him doing this please leave the room and give him some privacy.

In my own experience I have attributed any sexual dysfunction to the antidepressant meds I was on at the time.
citalopram seemed to make it hard to climax
amitriptyline was different - it was hard to get hard
escitalopram was/is similar to citalopram but not so pronounced.

Ironically while suffering some anti depressant driven inability to do the deed properly I also had a bit of a close shave with DA induced hypersexuality. Rampant and insatiable at 12mg Ropinirole/day - but now well controlled at 8mg/day.

Things are better now but at one point I was unable to stop thinking about sex but not really able to do anything 'productive' about it.
