I've noticed that it seems shorter duration of effectiveness between doses doc has me on extended 9 am and 9 pm then he added lower doses at 1pm and 5 pm but it seems after about 2 hours I'm miserable and shaking again!
Russell6,
Merry Christmas to all. I am sorry I have not been on board recently as sold our house and am moving again to a rental space for now. My hub just got his dose of Levo/dopa just got increased and finds it extremely difficult to fit the doses in every 6 hours. And his hands are still shaking. Really having problems walking now just coming up stairs etc. Has to sit down a lot. Anyways, thankful he is still above ground. On that note should tell all of my friends posted under me I will not be able to reach out to everyone at this time with having to move in the next few days. Terrible time to be moving. Oh well, it always could be worse. Wishing you all a Happy New Year's. Take care, God Bless! Colleen😊🤗☺️🎊💗

Unfortunately, we're stuck with the 'one-size-fits-all' approach to medicine--unless, of course, you're rich.
It varies.
I take 2 25/100mg every 3 hours and Pramipexole 0.5 mil 3 times a day
