    Cap Sage replied to the topic Levodopa Reduction? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Medications 3 months ago

    I have noticed the same phenomena, ie. not feeling worse when late dosing C/L. And I’ve also noticed feeling worse 15-30 minutes after taking C/L. I’ve tried to avoid protein 1-hr before and 1-hour after taking C/L.

    Thus, I too have wondered about reducing C/L dosage. I am trying to do this by substituting mucuna-pruriens for part of my former…[Read more]

    Cap Sage replied to the topic What are your thoughts about Deep Brain Stimulation? in the forum Parkinson's Disease alternative treatments 6 months, 1 week ago

    No thanks! I am appalled at the lack of serious research into the genus of Parkinson’s. While I appreciate attempts to relieve victims of Parkinsons’ horrific symptoms, of which I am all too painfully familiar, I much prefer the goal to locate and resolve the origin of Parkinson’s, which will ultimately lead to prevention and cure. There are some…[Read more]

    Cap Sage replied to the topic Anxiety and Parkinson's in the forum Living ​With​ ​Parkinson's Disease 1 year, 8 months ago

    I try to avoid all med’s and currently only take Sinemet ER 50/200 3x/day. Natural supplements? Those I take after researching each. Things that help with PD anxiety for me are:

    Vitamin B5, 500 mg B4 bedtime

    Passion Flower

    Valerian root B4…[Read more]

    It looks as if you have enough suggestions to keep you busy for awhile! Thanks to all who replied.

    I also now take Sinemet 3x/day 50/200 Carbidopa/Levodopa, but I dealt with PD over 5 years before going onto any medication.  The whole story would be a book, but I also have used and tried many natural remedies, many of which I still take or use.…[Read more]

    Cap Sage replied to the topic Relief for Parkinson's insomnia? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Symptoms 3 years, 4 months ago

    Dear Natalia,

    I too have had increased insomnia with PD, and have tried many remedies to find what works best for me. I have, and will continue to avoid drugs and seek the most natural solutions. Before finding workable natural remedies, it was at times impossible to sleep at all, all night. One time in particular occasioned me to have my…[Read more]
