via Tips to finding Joy this Holiday Season: By Maria De Leon
"I AM"- are the two most powerful words in the dictionary because the ending determines your destiny….so join me in my fight against PD to make sure that everyone who suffers from this chronic progressive degenerative disease can develop the courage to shout to the wind- I AM Fierce and Courageous ….
I am 76 years old and was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease 4 years ago. Recently, when I wake up about 4:00 am, I have pain in both lower legs in the calf. When I have to awake at 12:00 am to take 3 Sinemet 25/100 (due to leg cramps) there is no pain in my legs. Is this pain a result of Parkinson’s, or fluid build up in the legs? Your ideas would be appreciated.
Sorry to hear and thank you for reaching out George…most likely need increase in Pd meds ..but talk to doctor ASAP to evaluate and rule out other causes …best of luck and merry Christmas 🎄🎁
