A Week Or So Ago I Had Trouble With My Legsr With Out Help.
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

I would get very dizzy and disoriented when I stood up. My husband had to help me get to other rooms or I would use walker. I was in lot of pain too. I eventually got better. My legs feel stronger not totally weak. Anyone have this? Is this part of Parkinsons?

This can be related to a condition called “ orthostatic hypotension” blood pressure change with standing position.The condition can be evaluated by cardiologist,neurologist
I personally use metropolol to protect my cardiac functiion.Ican not use carbidopa with metropolol do risk of hypotension,consult with md

My legs hurt all the time. It is restless legs. I am on requip and it helps some. I also have Ben Gay that you put in the freezer and it goes on cold and it feels wonderful.

Yes, I have a lot of trouble with my legs also. Sometimes I just cannot feel my feet to walk and then I must sit down. But after I take my meds my legs feel better and I am good to go.

It sounds like orthostatic hypotension - your blood pressure really drops when you stand, resulting in dizziness, sometimes problems moving. Call your doctor - there are lifestyle actions and meds that can help. You can fall and hurt yourself - so call the doctor today.
