To Linda Husvar:To answer your question,Linda about controlling diskenesia when it became excess, my first neurologist wanted me to take vallium which is a tranquallizer. Because at one period in my life I had been drinking heavily and felt that I had a leaning toward substance abuse, I demurred. He then recommended plain old over-the- counter benydril. It worked pretty good. At poresent I am switching to sinemet cr. I take 1200mg of sinemet a day and I alternate each dose between fast and sinemet cr. That 25/100 fast asnd 1/2 50/200 cr.It's working well. Jace LeACH -- TO: [log in to unmask] (Parkinson's Disease Info Exchange Network
