Hi I am a 41 year old male. I was diagnosed about a year and half ago but ignored symptoms for about 4 years before I finally went to the doctor. My symptoms have progressed fairly fast I guess from what I have read. In the last year and a half my life has totally changed. I am on not able to work anymore and am on social security. I go to a movement disorder specialist every three months and am currently taking 25/100 sinemet 2 tablets every 4 hours also daily azilect. My MDS has had to increase my dosage of sinemet pretty regularly to the point where I am now. I know everyone has a unique experience with pd. I am not sure how I should be feeling, should sinemet make you feel normal, not tremor of feel stiff and slow. I have read that sinemet can create a honeymoon phase, not really sure if I am in this phase or not. I really hope not because even though I know I am better off on sinemet its not exactly having the dramatic effect iv heard about. If anyone could help shed any light on this subject for me I would truly appreciate it. Thanks
