    This is LLouB again. Having difficulty taking the Levidopa/Carbidopa combo. It can make me feel really bad and I think the issue is my blood pressure.

    Has anyone had blood pressure issues with this medication??

    Thank you for any insights.

    Hello, I am new to this forum. I was diagnosed with PD four years ago and have mild symptoms. I have a problem that I wonder if anyone else has experienced. I take the carbidopa/levodopa combination, but when I take it I feel bad. If I take very much my blood pressure drops a lot, to the point where I cannot function. My doctor would like me to take carbidopa prior to taking that combo, but after a week or so I had a bad reaction. It seems that my doctor hasn’t seen this before.

    Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions? Thanks for any info you can provide.
