Recently I have been running into problems with severe dyskinesia even without meds (except requip) as my STN Stimulator has been turned up. Has anyone else with STN experienced this or has anybody experienced dyskinesia without meds being involved in some way. I have had to turn off the stimulator twice since it was turned up yesterday to get comfortable? I presume this is a withdrawal from the requip ( I have taken only about 1000 mg total of Sinemet since I had the stimulator turned on at the end of May!!!) I Have a call into my doc (neurology). I have talked to the neurosurgeon and he feels it is part of a withdrawal from sinemet or Requip.? Since this STN is so new I am looking for anyone who has gone through this and gotten to the other side (or not) as the case may be.
