Dyskinesia
How long does one take sinemet/carbidopa levodopa before dyskinesia sets in? I saw a woman I've known for some time, who started the medicine about 5 yrs ago and is starting with the involuntary movement. I was on it for about 5 years and went off to avoid the dyskinesia, and never felt the beginnings of it though the medicine did help a lot. She also takes mirapex.
