I don't know how protein affects someone using Sinemet CR but my mother has
her Sinemet pills crushed and dissolved in water and takes her dose every
two hours.  Fifteen to twenty minutes later she then eats her food.  She
eats very little protein and that has made a tremendous difference in the
success of the medication.

    Someone wrote that controlling your Protein intake made you feel better.
Is this true and where can I find out about this?
    I found out that I had Parkinson on 5-24-1995 and still I know very
little about it.
    I take Sinemet CR 25/100 3 or 4 times a day depending how long that day
is. Eldepryl 5 mg. -1 am 1 at noon
    I am 65 years old - 112 lb.. - 4' 6" Will my size make a difference in
the amount of Sinemet I need?
    It is time I find out what Parkinson is doing to my body. Any and all
help would be approached
