Riverwater I use an alarm which wakes me at 12 midnite, 4 am, 8am to take regular doses of sinemet and comtan. Therefore my body gets equal dosage 24 hours a day every four hours. I would guess a lot of us wake up in pain to turn over cause the body for whatever reason refuses to turn itself over. The continuos medication regime I am on does not turn me over when I should but allows the pain to wake me and keeps me mobile enough that I still can turn over myself. This also makes me mobile with minimal rigidity when I get up. The Sinemet Patch is coming very soon I was told! Yes it would be nice to go to bed before midnite and sleep till 8 am just once in a while.
