Dear Hilary, I have experienced a similar state--from taking a large Sinemet instead of a small one, and being overmedicated. I felt really "loopy", almost drunk. The dyskinesia made me kind of "reel" around, and feel really loose-joionted. My breathing was rapid & shallow, almost like an anxiety attack. It was bizarre the first time it happened (about a year ago). Now I'm that way 50% of the time. The other 50% I'm off and can't move at all. Best of luck to you.

I have no recollection of doing so, but I was one dose short for the day. I had the worst dyskenesia ever, lots and lots of energy, and was totally off-balance. Any comments? >>
