An update of my side-to-side tap test results. They now cover the period from just after 7 years to almost 14 years post diagnosis. The regression line is still going upwards. This suggests that I am improving. However, this is probably due to a training effect. My last few readings have been below average, possibly showing a progression in my PD. This is mirrored in my subjective assessment of my symptoms.

The decision only to show data which have been collected 600 minutes after the last dose, which in my regimen is Stalevo, L/C/E, was chosen to be almost certainly indicative of an "off" state. There will also be some benefit from the 8mg dose of ropinirole CR and the 1mg dose of rasagilene taken approximately 1200 minutes prior to the test.
