Just can't travel
Wish I didn't have such issues with my legs being so restless all the time and being on a pain medication that makes me so drowsy. My husband just left here to go attend my step-son's orientation at NC State and I just couldn't deal with the 2 hour drive up and back. I feel badly that my poor hubby has to make the trip up there by himself but I think his son is riding back with him but that has yet to be determined. I wish they would prescribe me this medication called Sinemet because I have heard so many great reviews about it and how it has helped alleviate some, if not all symptoms in some of the PD folks in this group. I know that the Mirapex hasn't done much of anything for me in regards to helping with slurring of speech, drooling, problems eating, chewing and swallowing. I miss out on a lot of musicals and concerts that my step-daughter is in at her college because I just can't get comfortable sitting or traveling. I am starting to feel as though I am letting my husband down by not being able to attend these out of town events for his kids and I'm sure my step-daughter feels I don't support her enough because I just can't do all that sitting without having to constantly either move my legs or get up and walk around. Having PD rally stinks.
