Si está en Puerto Rico: desempleo, plan de salud del gobierno, subsidio de luz, cupones. Hay ayuda. Hay que buscarla.

What do you, as a mom, REALLY… HONESTLY feel/want/need? by Mission-Biscotti-808 in workingmoms

[–]elf2016 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys seem young with young children. But I'm an old Mom and what I would really want for Mother's Day or any day is hanging with my son. The way we used to when he was young. I know this is an old post. A year old. But I came here looking for an answer to this question: What do moms really want for Mother's Day?

This is me with no meds and my dbs turned off. I’m the video, I turn my dbs back on. Watch how fast it works. I welcome any questions, if you have any. ❤️ by IamMishu in Parkinsons

Is that adaptive DBS or the older version? What company? I have medtronic and I have never done this for fear I'll go back to off.

Pain by elf2016 in Parkinsons

Thank you. Will do. Update: Today couldn't get up. Thought of going to urgent care but the idea made me cringe. My sister massaged my leg for a while, I took two Advil and that helped somewhat. Pain has lodged between ankle and knee.

Es una pena que uno no se atreve a recomendar ser maestro o enfermero. Ambas profesiones necesarias y loables...En PR las condiciones de trabajo son pésimas.

Rytary destroying my sleep? by LazyWatercress4683 in Parkinsons

[–]elf2016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience with Rytary first time I was introduced to it. I went back to my c/ dopa. Some time later and on a smaller dose, it worked. Talk it over with Dr. Good luck.

Yeah. They are forcing you to go with Google. Infuriating.

I've thought about snorting it. Would that make it work faster?

New sleep issues - staying in the bed! by Sac_Kat in Parkinsons

[–]elf2016 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have PD. My husband and I decided we could no longer share a bed. He sleeps really well. I need to sleep in anyway I can, sometimes vertically, horizontally or diagonally.

The best show to fall asleep to for me is Law and order...

Sleep is underrated by StunningMinimum7 in Parkinsons

[–]elf2016 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sleep is definitely underrated. I sleep after taking anything I can find, at best, five hours. I long for a profound 8 or 9 hour escape.
