Does Stalevo Cause Hot Flashes, Mouth Burning And Breath Shortness?

I have been taking Stalevo for over a year. I have noticed some changes like burning inside of mouth but recently I have had very severe problems after taking this medication. Usually feel very hot within body, have to apply cool cloth to face and head and chest, numbness of 3 fingers, mouth burning, shortness of breath,extremely high blood pressure(which normally is low) funny feeling with heart not pain though. Falling asleep without warning, Very vivd usually scary dreams. I was hospitalized but nothing found to cause these things. I feel it is the medication. I got really scared when my face felet ingly and my eye was cloudy

Hi,

All the narrated symptoms like hot feeling, numbness of fingers, and other may not be due to the medicine (Stalevo) it could be late sensitivity but is too unlikely, you can wait for sometime and let subsides all the symptoms on its own, till then better not to take the medicine.
It is just a trial, once you got alright then you can have the medicine again, if nothing happens then it may not be the medicine caused the symptoms but it can be some functional factors might be playing the role.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
