Hi all the last few months I have been losing strength in my unaffected side to the degree of not being able to do the most mundane tasks like dressing myself,washing, wiping after a toilet visit.

When my meds are working I gain strength and able to do those tasks.

Has anyone dealt with this?

When my Mom is low on dopamine she can barely move. She has no strength at all. Once the dopamine kicks in she is fine.

I have the same trouble and I'm so slow at moving about. We all seam to have the same problems. That's PD for you.

I have a difficult time getting ready for bed. It takes about a half hour just to,get my shoes and socks off. Once I’m ready for bed I have a difficult time trying to get into bed comfortably. Maybe not even comfortable just getting into bed because I don’t have the strength to. Push my body where I need to be
