Jeff 'n Becky.... Pay attention to Dr .Jane! She's right on point - Prolly lotsa dyskinesia, but despite that, I betcha she's gonna be fine. And gee... in my PD support group we have a fella who takes just over 2000 mgs of Sinemet DAILY!!!!! TALK about dyskinesia?!?!?!?! Un-be-LIEVABLE!!!] (to me) He knows he's O/D-ing but just cannot cut back. Very sad...
