It is with great difficulty that I write this post. After seeing a new doctor about my increased Parkinson ‘s-like shakiness, I was given a new med and told to stop taking my former dopa combination. The result was a massive increase in my shakes. She stopped the dopa meds in prep for a DAT test on the 15th of June. Since it is a holiday weekend here, I can only get her answering service. I will call to ask questions tomorrow when the office is open again.
Until then, I will be silent in my writing but will still be reading as much as possible. Right now, my hands start flapping like leaves in the wind anytime I try to do something in detail, such as type, hold a cup of coffee, or brush my teeth. It’s very frustrating.
I appreciate all of you very much and enjoy reading your posts. Keep them coming, and I will update you as soon as possible.
Hokey
Jeez, no coffee…
So sorry Larry. I can imagine how difficult it must be. All the best
Sorry about all this, hopefully they will be able to help very soon
I’m so sorry to hear this, the same time thing happened to my dad on Thursday as you might have read in my post. I hope you get a quick resolution. Did you try to call the pharmacy and tell them what happened? Maybe they could suggest someone to call for a quicker response.
Oh Hokey, I am so very sorry I only read this now… I can’t imagine how scary and frustrating this must be. I really hope your doctor can do something to help in the short term, and that the test you have scheduled next week will bring answers that will help better your life in the long run. My thoughts are with you!
