My husband has been on an extra dose of carbidopa/levidopa for 2 weeks now and feels there is some improvement in the curled toes and mouth droop. He now now takes meds 4 times a day with a time released dose at bedtime. With this extra dose he didn’t feel the immediate impact on his body that he has in the past with increased dosage. I’ll let you know if things change or he has the botox.

Also, regarding boxing. I searched all over for Rock Steady and couldn’t find one closer than an hour. Then my PT mentioned that there was one at our Rec Ctr but just called Parkinsons boxing. I wish they would promote it as it has been great for him.

So glad to hear that the extra dose of med is working well for him and that he is being helped by the PD boxing group, @jtes.

Little changes can often result in big results!
