There is a clear pattern emerging, slim folk have a high l-dopa sensitivity, and suffer sweating and dyskinesia.
Heavier folk need more sinemet, and don't have heavy dyskinesia or sweating.

Laura, Interesting idea to include how long a dose lasts,
I get about 3 hours from 50mg L-Dopa, and 2 hours from 25mg.
I dare not take 100mg, I would be through the roof with dyskinesia and sweating. (Funny, sweating is hardly ever discussed in medical papers, yet it clearly is a problem.)

NAME ………WEIGHT……….L-DOPA SENSITIVE……….SWEATING……………..DYSKINESIA

If we could fill in the missing data it would add to the statistics.
Please let me know if I have got any data wrong.
I will be away all next week on holiday, so maybe somreone else could take over filling in the gaps
