Hello Marling, I recently spent a challenging and (for me) exciting weekend
at the AGM of the PDS (UK). I have in previous years found that if I take my
normal dose of Sinemet I seem to be overdosed, so this year I abandoned my usual routine, and just took  a tablet when I felt the need coming on. This worked
perfectly, and next day, I found that I had only taken HALF my normal dosage!
   I believe the difference was being made up by adrenalin, due to the level
of interest. Has anyone else noticed this effect?
