In reply to the inquiry about constipation, it's common in PD. I was
troubled with it to the point of needing a laxative, but when I raised
my daily dosage of Sinemet the constipation went away. I have read
that dopamine is needed in the gut as well as the brain, and when the
gut doesn't have enough, it is essentially paralyzed. Try this (with
your neuro's approval) and good luck.

Cheers, Joe
