Is there any suggestions I gave give to him for when his feet/legs don't cooperate when his body is moving?
Before I went on sinemet I use to count 123 to move.It worked then and now when the drug is wearing off.Most falls accure when turning with pd or when leaning forward to much. I have stooped posture some especialy in wear off.That is when I might fall.
I now take pill about a hour before any protein and much better.
I still wake up every morning at three .plan on alarm at 2 and take pill then.
