David,
Go figure. virtually NO dyskinesia!!! As of this week I'm on
maintenance; my neurologist can raise or lower Sinemet in 2 weeks, but I'm
doing well. I've been diagnosed for 13 years. My worry is that the S
will start to cut out and it won't make any difference how much I take.
Not as many options as I really want. What about your Sinemet dosages?
Everyone is different with this.
