Default Rytary
I have mentioned this before. If you are having periodic stiffness and are taking Sinemet, you should ask your doc to Rx Rytary. Rytary is Sinemet but comes as a capsule with small timed release particles and should better even out the dopamine swings your brain has when on Sinemet..

Magnesium goes a long way toward reducing stiffness. I also take extended release (ER) Sinemet. DBS has reduced my tremor 95%, I love it!
