Is there such a thing as too much Levodopa? In this honest, experience-driven episode, Bryce dives into the reality nobody talks about: knowing when your medication is helping—and when it’s starting to hurt. From the early days of chasing “control” with more pills to the wake-up call of dizziness, exhaustion, and dyskinesia, Bryce shares real stories and practical signs that it’s time to rethink your dose.

Whether you’re newly diagnosed, deep into your Parkinson’s journey, or a caregiver wondering what “too much” looks like, this episode unpacks:

• Why there’s no universal max dose for Levodopa (and what really matters)
• The hidden signs you might be overmedicated—like hallucinations, sleepiness, and impulse control issues
• What it feels like to “hit your peak dose” (and why tracking your symptoms is everything)
• How your medication needs will change as Parkinson’s progresses
• Why being your own advocate—tracking, journaling, and speaking up—makes all the difference

Bottom line: The goal isn’t just to survive, it’s to function and live. Sometimes, that means having tough conversations, adjusting your dose, and remembering: more isn’t always better, but less isn’t noble if you’re struggling.

Bryce-ism of the Episode:
"More medication isn’t always more freedom. Sometimes, it’s just more noise your body has to shout over. Tune in, track it, and find your real balance."
