Hi I am wondering if anybody can give me some advice. My husband was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2017 and is coping well with the aid of medication he takes L.Dopa.
He has been diagnosed with severe arthritis and has been told he needs two full hip replacements. He is in terrible pain his doctor has just prescribed him Tramadol I am worried this could affect his Parkinson’s as it is a form of morphine. Can anybody give me advice
Please xxx
