Diphasic dyskinesia might be the case. I experienced dyskinesia only 1 yr after starting Sinemet. Some PWP never get dyskinesia. I changed treatment to adopt the Hinz protocol. This protocol claims dyskinesia is caused by carbidopa. using Mucuna Pruriens to provide levodopa removed carbidopa from the equation. It worked for me. I agree with John.
