I have tried so many pillows, would be so happy to find one that really works.
I’m Finding ( All Of A Sudden) Lately I’m Having Problems With My Memory.
Im 77 and in my 10 year of PD. We have had to move to be closer to doctor appointments for both my husband and myself.

Extreme Paranoia As Side Effect Of Carbidopa?
Newbie here. At a loss of how I can help my family. My father has been on Sinemet for months-- taking the pills makes life "kind of" worth living again, but the negative side effects are beginning to take a toll. He is very paranoid and jealous, accusing his spouse of cheating. It's becoming so difficult for her, who does nothing but love him and take care of him at the expense of her own mental health. She tries to explain to him that this is a side effect of the medication, but he does not… read more
