by Guest » Fri Sep 07, 2007 5:53 pm
I was diagnosed as parkinson disease patient in 2005.
I was prescribed by doctor with Sinemet 25/100 one each three times and Jumex 5 gm one each two times per day for the past of two years.
As my physical agility is not too much mproving and I changed to Dr, Chew Nee Kong, Consultantt Neurologist Pantai Cheras Medical Centre for treatment on the month of July 07 he optimises my medication to 4 gm Requip (ropinirole) each three times and one Sinemet 25/100 two times a day. I am surprised my agility is 90% improving as told by my two trainers. I am glad I am able to do stretching exercises and gmx classes ie. body combat, pump, yoga, spinning and box and kick exercises for three hours from Monday to Friday. I do massage on every saturday to lossen my body tiredness. I rest on bed for an hour after my exercises. I find my Physical mobility and agility is normal and PD is very mild from now as told by Dr. Chew.
I wish to take this forum to express my thanks to Dr. Chew Nee Kong my his excellent work and his contribution for the Pakinson's patients.

Dear Dr.Kathrynne Holden,
I have sideeffect on taking the 12 gm Requip per day besides Sinemet 25/100 as follows:
!. Bloating caused by overdose of Requip.
2. Sleepless at night as my whole body is warm.
I feel better now by taking away 4 gm Requip for evening replace with one dose of Sinemet as it is a woder drug for Parkinson's treatement. I sleep well at night and minimize bloating caused by overdose of Requip.
Kindly advise

Dopamine Agonist: Requip (Ropinirole)
by Guest » Fri Sep 21, 2007 4:34 am
Dear Dr. Kathrynne Holden,
I understand that medication of Fluimucil A 600 (Mucolytic) and Motilium 10mg have different purpose for treatment of Parkinson's
I refer the website Google :-
Mucus may narrow or block the airways, making it difficult to breath. Mucolytic drugs are designed to help loosen and clear the mucus from the airways by breaking up the sputum. The most common type of mucolytic is a medication called N-acetylcysteine. This medication is available in tablet or inhaled form. The inhaled form is given by a nebulizer. N-acetylcysteine is more commonly used by patients in European countries than in patients in the USA
Motiulium is for treatment of sideeffects of Dopamine Agonists i.e Requip as it causes the Parkinson's problem i.e Bloating, Nausea and etc.
Since Parkinson's have the problem of breathing the best medication is Fluimucil A 600 . Therefore, I am taking both together, one dose of Fluimucil and 3 doses of Motiulium daily.
Is it overdose?
Kindly advise

Dear Teo,
Motilium is a good medication for those with PD, as it can help with slowed stomach emptying, and does not aggravate PD symptoms. I cannot advise you as to the correct dose for your particular needs, however -- this is the domain of your physician.Best regards,

Difficulty Swallowing Specific Foods
by Dr. Mahler » Tue Mar 02, 2010 9:04 am
It sounds like you are describing a swallowing problem that occurs wwith a specific food type - in this case hot soup. Each individual with PD has unique swallowing difficulties so it is not possible for me to know exactly why hot soup irritates your throat but I can discuss possible causes.
The first obvious cause is that your soup is too hot and you need to give it time to cool down. Other reasons would relate to the consistency of the soup and the ingredients in the soup. Sometimes foods of mixed consistency can be more challenging to swallow safely. A thin broth with with chunky vegetables, for example, could be difficut for some people. Also, if the soup has spicy ingredients that could be irritating your throat.
Many people with PD have reflux. It is possible to have reflux and not be aware of the symptoms because they can be subtle. For example, frequent throat clearing can be a symptom of reflux as can decreased voice quality especially in the morning after lying down to sleep. It may be that you have reflux and the soup acts as an irritant.
To learn more about whether you have reflux, you should consult with your physician. An ear, nose and throat doctor can look at your vocal folds and determine whether there are signs of reflux. The treatment of reflux is typically a combination of medication and behavioral modifications.
I hope this information gives you some ideas about what might be going on with you individually. A speech-language pathologist is trained to evaluate swallowing. Your physician can give you a referral if you think this would be appropriate for you.
Thank you for writing.

Parkinson's is no longer known as only a movement disorder. Parkinson's specialists have shifted their focus of attention to the commonly occurring non-motor symptoms such as constipation, depression and anxiety, which can even precede the motor symptoms of Parkinson's by a few years.

parkinson's progression
posted by teokimhoe on Oct 16, 2009
Symptoms of Parkinson's usually begin slowly, develop gradually and in no particular order. Everyone with Parkinson's is very different and may have a different collection of symptoms and response to treatment. The nature and severity of symptoms and the rate at which the condition progresses will also be individual. The symptoms may take years to progress. However, since Parkinson's is a progressive condition, symptoms will worsen over time and new ones may appear....

Gastric reflux and PD
posted by teokimhoe on Feb 07, 2010
Gastric reflux is one of the non-motor symptoms of PD. It can cause irritation of the vocal folds and throat and can potentially cause voice hoarseness. It is possible that a person who has reflux doesn't have any symptoms of reflux that they recognize. For example, sometimes people feel as though they "have something stuck in my throat" after swallowing. These people may even seek a swallowing evaluation which turns out to be within normal limits. The reason is that when reflux irritates the vocal fold...

My story with parkinson's
posted by teokimhoe on Feb 02, 2010
The doctors had difficulty diagnosing because I was still at the early stage of the illness. Parkinson’s is a movement disorder that varies from one patient to another. Therefore it is difficult for doctors to detect, especially for the early-stage Parkinson’s. A year later, in 2006, I went to see a Parkinson’s Specialist in Kuala Lumpur and it was confirmed that I had Parkinson’s. It was still a shock for me as I was in heavy self denial and filled with anger. I was prescribed with a combination of S...

parkinson's progression
posted by teokimhoe on Oct 16, 2009
Symptoms of Parkinson's usually begin slowly, develop gradually and in no particular order.

The nature and severity of symptoms and the rate at which the condition progresses will also be individual. The symptoms may take years to progress. However, since Parkinson's is a progressive condition, symptoms will worsen over time and new ones may appear....

Gastric reflux and PD
posted by teokimhoe on Feb 07, 2010
Gastric reflux is one of the non-motor symptoms of PD. It can cause irritation of the vocal folds and throat and can potentially cause voice hoarseness. It is possible that a person who has reflux doesn't have any symptoms of reflux that they recognize. For example, sometimes people feel as though they "have something stuck in my throat" after swallowing. These people may even seek a swallowing evaluation which turns out to be within normal limits.

It was still a shock for me as I was in heavy self denial and filled with anger. I was prescribed with a combination of S...

Parkinson's is no longer known as only a movement disorder. Parkinson's specialists have shifted their focus of attention to the commonly occurring non-motor symptoms such as constipation, depression and anxiety, which can even precede the motor symptoms of Parkinson's by a few years.
