Thanks again to Lindy for letting me bypass slogging through the archives!

I have been intending to try this for some time now and will simply report back my experience.

Note: I made half the "recipe" so it was 5 pills to .50 or 50 ml or water

Results:

Less than one minute for drug to take effect

Much less dyskinesia and other ill effects of too much l-dopa (calmer demeanor, no rapid speech, etc.)

Much less harsh wearing off sensation (back to baseline of two years ago with tingling sensation)

Down Side:

Much more frequent intake of med like once an hour. Note: if I can psych myself into the idea it is merely a bottle of water that lasts all day...

Note: Toward the beginning, I felt like dosage not enough for me, and that is most likely the case, so I supplemented twice with 1/2 regular tab of Sinemet. This is still better than I normally feel with this drug.

Conclusion: I have concern about taking to work as I work with or around children. The bright yellow color looks like Mountain Dew. I may try on a teacher work day or most likely will try at home on weekend as a nice alternative to the grind of pill-popping. Just to feel that I have an option at this point is nice.
