Confused
I went to Baylor this week, as I have moved to Texas. I've been seeing an MDS at Mayo for several years who diagnosed me with dystonia with secondary Parkinsonism. Said he wasn't sure I had young onset Parkinson's, but in case I did he would wait as long as possible to start levodopa b/o dyskenesias. Then I see Jankovic at Baylor & with total confidence he says I have Parkinson's & recommends Sinemet & that it will make me "almost normal" for about 10 years until the dyskenesias kick in.... I'm so confused! I am 39 & want to enjoy life still...
Thoughts? Please advise!
