Asking for Other, Male, 66 years old, Kamalia
My grandfather is around 60+ and has been suffering from Parkinson-like tremors for the last 4 years. Tremor started on the right side and now involves the whole body during OFF periods. He is currently taking Sinemet, Mirtazapine, Rosuvastatin, Aspirin, Sitagliptin, Escitalopram, and blood pressure medicines. For now he takes only following listed below, - sinemet 2 times a day - Mtaz at night - Depsit in morning Diabetes and blood pressure is normal. 80-130mg/dL He says safepram causes his spine burning and feels restless. He gets severe tremor and restlessness especially between late morning to afternoon, and feels very hopeless during that time. Tremor improves for about 1–2 hours after Sinemet. He has fear of falling even while sitting, difficulty passing urine or stool during tremor, and avoids drinking water which causes burning urine. Sleep is normal and tremor stops during sleep. We want guidance about medication timing, OFF-period control, mood symptoms, and fall risk

Thank you for your question. In homeopathy, medicine is selected according to the complete symptoms and patient constitution. For accurate remedy selection, a detailed case history is required. You may consult for proper homeopathic treatment.
First, we need to establish this is actually Parkinson's. Once that is established we can move towards optimising treatment (off phenomenon are fairly common) and there are several ways of doing so.
You should consult a Neurologist for help with this.
Too many med regular usage giving him severe side effects . Share his current reports . Parkinson along with other ailments is treatable .
Parkinsonism tremor is accompanied by rigidity or stiffness and bradykinesia or slowness of movement. Sometimes essential tremor is misdiagnosed as Parkinsonism. Sinemet is toxic to the neurons and can cause abnormal movements called dyskinesia. These abnormal movements can be mistaken for worsening of tremor and the physician would be tempted to increase the dose of sinemet, thus making the problem worse. Kindly make a video of his tremor during the day and during what you call off period and post it here. If you would like to consult me it can be done through Marham
