Default Rytary?

My wife, 69 yo, has has PD for 16 years now. She was disqualified from DBS because she has delusions and hallucinations. She takes Rytary instead of Sinemet and that makes a big difference in allowing her to move longer even though her psychosis is a real problem.
At your young age, I would really consider DBS before psychosis kicks in. The more L-Dopa you take, the greater chance of psychosis.
