Hi @hopeful33250 , I am aware that certain queries could be answered only by the Doctor in charge. My point was specifically with respect to the role of Cardidopa in contributing to/ controlling dyskinesia. I thought there may be some useful info on this in the public domain.
Incidentally, your input on dyskinesia was very useful, thanks for it. I have a good exercise plan overseen by a Physio Therapist , the sessions lasting an hour thrice a week. I do walk as much as I can , lasting 40-50 mins a day.
Proper self discipline of Exercise and diet foods will increase dopamine. Use Google to learn of too little or too much dopamine. How to increase dopamine. Perhaps too much Carbidopa????
I understand that the purpose of Carbidopa is to increase dopamine. Correct?
So I go for long walks (even with umbrellas in Oregon rain), I use an inside bike, I do stretching on the floor exercises. I ahear to home made foods: no constipation. Or used prune juice or prunes to maintain as needed. Mid day, I I often forget to take Carbidopa ...mostly because I seem to not need it. Correct?
In the evening I use CALM YouTube music instead of BUSY. Background: Soft, relaxing piano, guitar. Instead of invasive TV or Busy music, I use soft background music. Meanwhile, I work on a hobby that provides more calm.
Restlessness may be triggered by SITTING, watching TV or sceens "news" or programs or movies where people are hurting people.
