Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Hello Courage, I take Requip now for PD Symptoms and it seems to do pretty good. I couldn't take the Sinemet SR any longer. I had massive sweating problems until I was taken off Seroquel. I still have some problems now and again, but it has actually felt good to feel cold once again. Usually the temoerature or humidity is up when I sweat now and so I think I am getting back to normal there....Hugs...Patti > Hi All, > > I'm wondering if any of your LO's are taking a PD med other than Sinemet? My mother really starts to sweat and what looks like anxiety a little while after taking Sinement and am hoping there is another med out there she can try. > We had to take Olivia (my mom) to the emergency room the other day because her heart was racing and they flew here in the abulance on a full code. Twelve hours later they couldn't explain the heart problems but we did discover that mom had a UTI. Mom is doing better but she still has the sweating and discomfort. > Courage > > Please follow this link to learn more about Lewy Body Dementia > http://www.lewybodydementia.org > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2004 Report Share Posted November 2, 2004 Our experience is that any bladder control drug given seemed to cause more hallucinations...so we just use a diaper at night for mom. She is fine in the day (no incontenence) Kath Sherry Shaffer wrote: MY Mom is only on sinemet. Seroquel (more hallucinations an more violent) and Aricept. caused nausea. She did just start taking Oxybutan for bladder contro and now the hallucionations seem form active again....When she is just on the sinemt she seems to do the best... my peso's worth...
