Sleeping issue

Hello, I am a 64-year-old male with Parkinsons. Recently I have been experiencing very bad quality of sleep resulting in being extremely tired the next day. This is not getting better, and I am wondering if you have experienced this and what you did to resolve this. I take Rytary for my Parkinsons which is basically an extended-release Carbidopa and Levodopa

  1. sorry to hear you were battling sleep issues recently. How are you doing this week? I hope it has gotten a little better. Have you had an opportunity to speak with your physician your quality of sleep? In the meantime, I shared an article on sleep issues and PD, just in case it may be of interest -https://parkinsonsdisease.net/symptoms/sleep-problems-disturbances. I also wanted to take a moment and welcome you to our community, as I see you recently joined. Please know we're here for you. Reach out if we can ever help locate any information or simply provide a safe space for listening. Wishing you a restful evening. -Jessica (Team Member)
