@hopeful33250 My spouse has been taking Carbidopa-Levodopa for many years. He just recently started to have what the physicians relayed to me as Parkinson's Psychosis. He is on Exelon. He is a different person with this patch/24 hr. It has bought my spouse back to me for as long as it works. He has not been doing well prior. He was appalled at how he was acting out. I cannot tell you how it bought him back in less than 48 hrs. I actually felt we could talk about so many things. He was so loving. He was apologetic to me and was upset at himself for his behavior. They tweked his seizure meds. Seizures under control. He is having physical therapy as well as speech. He speech is fine other than the talking quietly. Actually like he is whispering. He has shared more today..than he has in a long time. Actually months. Counting my blessings.🫂💞

@sillyblone When you said that your husband is whispering,
Whispering is common to Parkinsons or speaking in a low voice. I've read that there are people who retrain those who have that symptom to consciously raise and project their voice so as to sound normal.

@sillyblone
Oh, I am so pleased that your husband improved with the Exelon patch. I can sense your relief that you are now able to communicate with him!

I appreciate you sharing this wonderful report.
