"I was diagnosed with young-onset Parkinson's disease 4 years ago. I switched from carbidopa/levodopa after a few weeks. I'm on 61.25-245 mg four times a day, but it wears off after about 4.5 hours. I didn't know the side effects until my mom's doctor asked if she had compulsive behavior (she also has PD) on it. My dad immediately thought of me. I spent thousands compulsive shopping. I'm more than $20K in credit card debt (none before). Tried increasing the dose for tremors and pain, but got serious dyskinesia. I'm on amantadine too, and my legs have mottled spots all over, and I'm swollen everywhere. Vivid dreams and nightmares, sudden extreme fatigue. I'm not sure what's caused by the PD and what's the drugs to treat it. It does help with the overall symptoms of Parkinson's, but I still get Botox injections in my feet every three weeks for spasms."
