Why do I feel so good? My quest to understand Parkinson's and it's affect on my body never ends. If you haven't seen this video yet you will never guess what it could be. I say this because it's a surprise for me too!! When I went to the emergency room because of difficulty breathing, feeling the so good way I feel now was not on my mind. I am always trying to understand Parkinson's and feel like I stumbled upon this by accident.

And yes!! According to the MJFF constipation can impact your meds!!

"Constipation can significantly impact quality of life, causing bloating, discomfort and nausea. It is one of the most persistent symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), arising often years before the motor symptoms and affecting people throughout their disease course. Constipation also can slow absorption and lower the effectiveness of Parkinson's medications, such as levodopa."

This is an example of how things can get tricky so be careful and talk with your doctor or pharmacist. I started to look into options to keep feeling this way and began looking into psyllium husks and something to be aware of according to this article from Mt. Sinai and other sources is that psyllium husk can have the opposite effect, and slow absorption of some medicines.
