The Shakes
Hi, Do you think this could actually be dyskInesia??
I have had PD for a similar time, 20 years, and I am now incredibly sensitive to L-Dopa. I can only take it in 25mg doses, and no more than 100 to 125mg a day. Even then I writhe and twist for hours. I get 50mg Stavelo tablet and use a pill cutter to halve them to 25mg. I used to need a 100mg to switch me on, but now 25mg not only switches me on, it lasts up to 3 hours, but with bad dyskinesia.
Please give my good wishes to Toyl
Ron
