    Susan Schlager replied to the topic Are you able to sleep through the night? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Symptoms 7 hours, 24 minutes ago

    Troy,

    My husband had the problem of always being tired and having a hard time waking up  in the morning.  He then told me he had a hard time going to sleep.  He  wasn’t aware of physically acting out dreams until I would wake him to ask what was wrong.  He could tell me his dream and it fit his acting out.  I suggested he take a small dose of me…[Read more]

    Yes, I had heard that Lyme disease, the great mimicker, can manifest itself as Parkinson’s disease, MS, Alzheimer’s, etc,  My husband’s neurologist refused to entertain that thought, actually made me feel stupid for thinking is could be a possibility.  I would like to know what others have heard.

    Troy,

    I fully sympathize with the “vivid dreams” as we call them.  My husband had horrible active, vivid dreams 2 years before he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s.  He would grab me because I was falling off a cliff, swing at me because he was hitting a baseball etc.  He also was tired and never had energy, had problems falling asleep and ge…[Read more]

    Susan Schlager replied to the topic Should I start Levodopa right away? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Medications 4 months, 1 week ago

    I recommend acupuncture for stiffness. It has been amazingly helpful for my husband. It may not work for everyone, but it won’t hurt anyone and there are no negative side effects. It is worth a trying every 2 week for 2 months.

    Susan Schlager replied to the topic Should I start Levodopa right away? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Medications 4 months, 1 week ago

    My husband has Parkinson’s and was diagnosed 2 years ago at 66. He has rt hand tremors and foot flop when running which he now maxes with 1-2 minutes of running. My experience as a nurse is that levadopa only works for so long so save it for when it is necessary for functioning. Sometimes the side effects in the future can be worse than your…[Read more]

    Susan Schlager replied to the topic Melotonin for stopping hand tremors in the forum Parkinson's Disease alternative treatments 6 months, 1 week ago

    I don’t know about hand tremors, but it sure helped my husband’s vivid physical dreams.  He was always so tired in the morning and had such physical, vivid dreams that I suggest he take 1 mg of melatonin.  It worked!  When he went to the neurologist, he said it would work because it effected REM portion sleep cycle.  ( I believe I got that cor…[Read more]
