I'm 30 and my leg has been pulsing since last night. I've also been dealing with neck pain. It's really starting to worry me. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you're experiencing some discomfort, but a pulsing sensation in the leg combined with neck pain could be due to muscle tension or nerve irritation. However, if the symptoms persist or worsen, its important to consult a doctor to rule out any serious issues like blood flow problems or nerve compression.

My grandfather was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease about 8 years ago, but now the doctors are saying he has progressive supranuclear palsy. He's been on Syndopa, but it seems to be making things worse for him. He used to take Ropark, and that was working well. Should we consider going back to Ropark instead?

kindly consult your physician if any side-effects of medicine
