So, I'm Trying To Keep Track Of My Symptoms And How Long It Takes For My Stalevo To Kick In.
Parkinson's Related symptoms vs. other medical problems! The Nurse Practitioner isn't very helpful with distinguishing between the two. "Well if your symptoms get better after taking my meds, it's Parkinson's Related!"
My neurologist told me the same thing 18 yrs ago when I was diagnosed....if the meds work it's Parkinsons....simple

Does Anyone Use LDN (Low Dose Naltrexone) For Their Parkinson Disease?
Have recently heard of a medication LDN (Low dose Naltrexone) that is being prescribed for a few medical problems.

New Medication Makes Me Nauseous?
I have recently changed medication to Stalevo and it's works reasonably well, however sometimes it makes me feel nauseous and gives me a sickly headache. This normally happens first thing in the morning or in the evening, I do try and take it with food and this makes no difference. I am reluctant to change as it does work well, has any else experienced this and have any advice?
If the stalevo is still making you feel sickly you could try adding domperidone to mix. It's very effective at dealing with nausea.
