Hello, My mother was diagnosed with Parkinson's about one month ago and I have been lurking on this list for the past few weeks. It has been very helpful. I have acouple questions some of you may be able to help with. 1. What is the Feldenkrais program/excersises and where can I get information on it for my mother? 2. About a week ago people were saying how eating a protein meal after taking sinemet helped reduce lightheadedness and nausea. Then this week someone said protein inhibited the effectiveness of sinemet. Is it because the protein inhibits the drug that it reduces the lightheadedness? If this is so, should one live with the side effects rather than inhibiting the effectiveness of the drug? Thanks in advance for your help. Deborah Neibel mother 68 diagnosed one month ago.
