Short Bio |
My husband has early onset PD, began 12 years ago and is now 61 years old. He is experiencing longer off periods, and more carbidopa/levadopa is resulting in more marked dyskinesia. Also seeing moderate cognitive issues, not allowed to drive anymore. We aren’t comfortable with the dementia treatments, he gets too many side effects. Not a candidate for DBS since the dementia is considered moderate, not mild. Looking for drug trials that might help.
