Dear, please understand alcohol is not a reason for anything. It is acting as an inhibitor in the brain. Dopa-mine is released and you will be able to do anything when you are under the influence of alcohol. You will need self esteem and self confidence building psychotherapy.

Which antihypertensive where you taking before you got pragnant? To answer your query, nifedipine and alpha methyldopa are both safe in pragnancy.

There is no known medication which can lead to life time recovery in Parkinson disease. Syndopa is not a pain killer, it only replaces dopa in body which is deficient in patients of Parkinson disease. Long term usage of syndopa can lead to certain expected side effects and in that case you need to consult your neurologist so that dose of medication can be modified. Yes, cycling, walking and yoga will be helpful for your disease and it is advisable that you should continue with same.
