| 1 | parkinsons tremors right side only3 | It doesn't do anything for my tremors which is the only issue I have. I do not have the 3 triggers. | F | 58 | 8 months | 4/8/2016 | 5 | Rest Leg Syndrome | When I first started it made me yawn a lot, after a year or so I have no side affects. | You do have to get your particular dosage right for it to be affective and you have to take it the same time everyday. | F | 50 | 8 years | 11/30/2007 | 4 | Parkinsons - right hand tremor | Hard to attribute side effects to any one medicine since I am medicated for diabetes, Congestive Heart Disease, Severe Anemia of unknown cause, as well as Parkinsons. I am having swelling and weight gain, and I sleep more than 8 hours each day, but these could be caused by several meds. | When it wears off, the tremor returns, so I think it's helping. My Neurologist has suggested I change to Requip or Mirpex. I don't want to do this since both have swelling, weight gain, and sleepiness, as common side effects. I don't need any more of any of those. | F | 66 | 3 years | 11/30/2005 | 4 | Parkinson's disease | this medication I will describe as a double edged golden sword, for the patients, it is not a cure it is a "TREATMENT" - I have been treated for this freakin disease for over 10 years, I have been appreciative for this treatment because the Pharmas own the FDA and they won't allow us "a cure!" but then again - I'm an idealistic thinker, and this world is not an ideal place/utopia? yet it could be a helluvalot kinder... sincerely, lavender a pd patient -stuck in treatment land! | it needs to be taken in the smallest doses that help because it is likely to cause us great harm in the long run... so we must - make others aware of this fact! | F | 42 | 6 years | 10/31/2005 | 4 | Parkinsons Disease | none | helps even out wearing off and wearing on of regular sinemet doses. | F | 55 | 20 months | 8/31/2004 | 4 | I have Parkinson's disease | I have no side affects. | I am able to move much better, don't freeze up and have much better balance. | F | 57 | 2 years | 6/29/2004 | 3 | parkinsons | some on/off symptoms, sleeplessness, needed sleeping tablets, | taking 2 erly morning to get me going and then 1 every 2 hours often did trick but sometime required additional sinimet LS to keep me going. | M | 52 | 3 years | 1/18/2002 |
