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.

Hi again @meenakshi

I am glad that the information on dyskinesia was helpful to you. Unfortunately, medication changes are very individual. Your doctor would need to determine if dyskinesia is the reason for your restlessness and then determine on the best course of action. You will probably not find anything in the public domain to help answer this question which is so dependent on many factors.

I am glad that you have such a good exercise program that is directed by a physical therapist. You are obviously doing some good things to help yourself.

I hope to hear from you again. Will you continue to post as you find answers?
