Sounds very strange that it has progressed so fasy...I hope you will keep asking & searching for answers..my doc told me that this is the most misdiagnosed disease & one of the hardest to get the meds right on because there are so many side effects and everything is subjective. I am better now than I was 4 years ago. I wish you the best and that your wife improves. Shelley

My wife has Parkinson
Treatments
- Sinemet Somewhat Helpful
- Sinemet worked for first 4 years and then my wife developed these terrible anxiety/panic episodes
- Sinemet Not Working
- Everything was great the first 4 years and then "Bam" these awful anxiety/panic attacks- several/ day. The Drs. didn't know what to do. Took my wife to research place(med school) and the Neurologist increased the sinemet. Then things really went bad and I couldn't get a follow-up until I screamed! Then she had the nerve to say that if zoloft didn't work I would have to find a psychiatrist. I dropped her. Think I have found a Dr. willing to help my wife, but he says it will take time.
