Cindy,
Does your husband have allot of "OFF" times with his drugs? That is another very issue my husband deals with and it is very difficult to deal with that.
Thank you,
Barb

My husband says he does not have “off” time, but I m not certain he’s correct. He also believes his medication doesn’t help but I know that’s not true.
We now have a motorized lift chair that he sleeps in because it’s too difficult to get out of bed, even with a bed rail. That was working for a while but now he’s struggling to get out of the chair. He fell over the weekend due to temporary loss of balance.
I must admit I am very worried about the future.
Best wishes to all on this forum. Cindy

My husband feels that he can’t identify “off” time, but I am thinking it’s when he has active tremor (hand). It seems this symptom is fairly well managed with Sinemet and he is also taking Gocoveri which has help with head motion.
