HI All - My sister was dxd with PD about 15 years ago when she was 38. She has been taking mirapex, requip and eldepryl is relatively small doses since then. She has a fairly marked tremor mostly on one side, and recently began experiencing seriously dry eyes, major back pain, and pain in her legs, making it difficult to navigate stairs and things. 7 days ago, she ran out of all her PD meds, and just stopped taking them (yikes.) Since then, she is feeling just amazingly good. All pain has disappeared, her tremor is noticeably calmed, she is sleeping all night, no issues with stairs etc... Have any of you ever heard of such a thing? We are of course currently wondering if she has been mis-diagnosed, those she sees a movement disorder specialist, and as someone who works in the field, she certainly seems to have every outward sign of PD. Any thoughts?
