yes. Be careful freezing and foot drag are what causes falls. What did your Dr. say? They upped my Dopa to 5 pills a day. Go back in two weeks. God Bless! Feel free to write me. Gail

yeah, I am having the same problems. Taking same meds. Dr. just added Trihexyphenidyl. He's hoping to ease the muscle tremors and weakness and help me walk....Gail
