Taking Parkinson's Medication at Young Age

Hello @nasbyevan, I would like to join @lisalucier in welcoming you to the PD support group on Mayo Connect. It is interesting that you are taking a PD medication for a non-PD issue. I can understand, though, why it helps you. Muscle stiffness is part of a PD diagnosis, and C-L definitely helps with that particular symptom. I had far less stiffness when I started C-L.
Do you have any other movement-related problems or voice/swallowing issues?

When it comes to movement related problems. Walking is by my best relief. Inactivity increases the stiffness. Physical therapy causes thr atrophy to increase. I have no voice or swallowing issues.
