Default Need Advice

Hi,

I am new to this forum and could use some help and advice. I am having alot of problems right now with my PD and am wondering how do you know when the problems are medication related or just the progression of the disease?
I am 57, female and have been diagnosed 3 years. I am currently on Generic Sinemet, Requip, Azilect and Amantidine. I have alot of problems with dyskinesia and constant pain in my legs and feet.The pain does not seem to respond to the Sinemet. The MDC Dr played with my meds lately and now it seems like nothing is working at all. They are telling me my only option is DBS and I am very nervous about that.

I appreciate any advice you may have for me.
