Default Those darned non-motor related problems!

This is interesting... As I've said before, I recently had an increase in my Sinemet from 4-1/2 pills per day to 6-1/2 - all of which has been the 25/100 yellow pills.

Well anyway for the longest time, maybe 4 years perhaps, I've had a numbness on the right side of my face (my PD side). I saw a neurologist about it, and was told I may have had an ischemic attack or perhaps a little bit of Bel's Palsy. That was then... Now with the increase in the Sinemet, the numbness and stiffness on my face has disapeared! Cool! I'm going to report this to my neuro when I see her in January.
