Eldepryl
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

My loved one has been taking Selegiline for two years, as an add-on to Sinemet. Recently his neurologist prescribed Lexapro. He took it for a week and was not doing well at all. I Googled the two meds and they seem to interact badly with one another. Has anyone else taken both? I don't know why a movement disorder specialist would prescribe both if they are contraindicated.

What Should I Do If A Person With Parkinson's Is Not Allowed To Get Out Of A Lounge Type Chair At A Nursing Home.
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

My husband with Parkinson's was put in a nursing home by his son and the nursing home will not let him get out of a lounge type chair except to use the bathroom. What should I do.

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member

If you’re his wife, you should be Abe to overrule his son. From a medical perspective putting him, and leaving him in a chair is the worst thing they can do for
Him.
