Clare don't forget that i am 11 years further down this path than you [and of course our reactions to meds are individual] in general terms, i believe that you are years away from experiencing any "ons" or "offs" which are related to developed sinemet sensitivity your biggest worry with starting sinemet will likely be stomach upset which low and slow titration should minimize otherwise, sinemet can be a godsend in the relief from the pd symptoms which you are now experiencing, 'honeymoon years' here you come! janet janet paterson 52 now / 41 dx / 37 onset snail-mail: PO Box 171 Almonte Ontario K0A 1A0 Canada website: a new voice <http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Village/6263/> e-mail: <[log in to unmask]>
