My wife, 69 yo, has has PD for 16 years now. She was disqualified from DBS because she has delusions and hallucinations. She takes Rytary instead of Sinemet and that makes a big difference in allowing her to move longer even though her psychosis is a real problem.
At your young age, I would really consider DBS before psychosis kicks in. The more L-Dopa you take, the greater chance of psychosis. |

You guys are the best! I'll talk to my neurologist about psychosis as well. Thanks for the information. I would have never thought about it, and I'm sure others wouldn't have as well. You've helped a lot of people.

Tried the patch but it didn't work for me. Neuro stated that the absorption method, through the skin, is not as good as other methods, e.g. orally, and as such patches should be used either real early or as support for other methods of treatment. Neil. |
