Default I am just like the London Bridge.........

I FALL DOWN, My falling has increased to an alarming rate. Last night I fell 3 times within about 10 minutes. One fall was with a 10inch butcher knife in my hand. And yesterday afternoon I fell with a pot of boiling water and burned my hand. It is really p*****g me off! I guess I will join the cats and the puppy down on floor level. We are having a Lifeline system installed on
Friday for safety when I am home alone. I am taking sinemet, selgeline and amantadine.....I keep wondering if it can be drug induced....any thoughts on this?

Default Falling

If this has happened so suddenly, it sounds like another cause other than progression of your PD.
Have your ears checked, for a wax build up, infection etc. Your ears are the key to balance. Meantime, go slowly and try not to rush until you can have a check. A bad fall can do lasting damage, as I know to my cost. MY left shoulder has permanent damage.
