I’ve had an increased number of freezing problems in the last four months or so. It’s very uncomfortable. I’m afraid of falling. Is there anything you can do? I’ve had my diagnosis since April 2018 and I haven’t had these problems before.

It can sometimes be difficult to treat freezing at the same time, but it’s usually better with an increase in dosage or more evenly administered levodopa. There’s of course some risk of falling in connection with this so it’s good to be careful. There are different strategies besides medications that can be used to get started when you’re frozen, like counting to three, singing a fast song or finding something to step over or kick on.
