I have had edema in both legs for a couple of months. They are still running
tests. Among the possibilities my neurologist mentioned was that it could be
due to the PD medication. My medication has lowered my blood pressure to the
point I have to add salt to my diet! My medication is Sinemet 25/250 - 1 tab
tib, Eldepryl 5mg - 1 tab bid, and Pramipexole (a trial dopamine agonist) -
1.5 mg tib.
 
I hope this helps.
