Started Carbidopa/Levodopa Today

Hi. My Mom was diagnosed Aug 2023 and boy did we have a horrible time getting diagnosed. I have honestly cried just about everyday since. She lives with me and I see her declining daily. Not to be negative but this disease is dreaded. I’m so sorry. Mom has really declined significantly in these last couple years. I just got her into rocksteady boxing for PD patients and she hates it. The carbo/leva makes her sleepy and she takes it 4 times per day and sleeps a lot now. Her dreams are so vivid and often very scary as she screams and cries. I mean like horrific screams. She has fallen so many times. Broken back, fractured hip and hit her head so many times. It breaks my heart into to witness this. But I know God has a plan and doesn’t make mistakes.

I'm sorry your mom is going through this. My mom died from PD and it was tough to watch her decline. I'll be praying for both of you.
