    Josephine replied to the topic Levodopa Reduction? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Medications 4 days, 18 hours ago

    I was diagnosed two years ago and was immediately put on CL. I had a terrible allergic reaction (skin peeling off in strips) and my head felt like it was “clanging.” So I was switched to pramipexole. I like the pramipexole, it feels “gentler” somehow. My point is that if you want to get off CL maybe you can simply switch to pramipexole.

    Josephine replied to the topic Sinemet dosage in the forum Parkinson's Disease Medications 1 month ago

    I’m a 71-year-old woman, diagnosed two years ago. Was immediately put on c/l, but within a few days my skin started peeling off in little strips, all over my body. The neurologist switched me to pramipexole, which I still take. I’m curious if anyone else has any kind of skin reaction to c/l.

    Wordle and Spelling Bee are fun because they’re much much quicker than doing crossword puzzles, but u still get a brain workout. If u don’t like crossword puzzles, try Wordle; I predict u will love it.

    Josephine replied to the topic How Often Do You See Your Neurologist? in the forum Diagnosis​ ​Information​ ​and​ ​General​ ​Questions 3 months, 1 week ago

    Every four months I see a neurologist. I live in a skilled nursing facility so I have constant access to nurses if I have health questions. I’m curious how many people reading this are in a facility?

    I am a 71-year-old woman who was diagnosed with PD two years ago and was immediately put on Levodopa. I had a terrible reaction to it, my skin peeled off in little strips; I looked like I was covered with little “feathers.” So the neurologist switched me to pramipexole three times a day. So far, I am very happy with the pramipexole.
