Sudden worsening of symptoms
Earlier this week, my husband was doing really well overall (he's on sinemet, Neupro and
amantadine
, btw). Then 3 days ago, his condition deteriorated terrifyingly quickly. He can no longer get in/out of bed or chairs, walk unassisted, or dress himself. Not interested in food.

Question for those on Amantadine
I have just started to take it along with the sinemet (9 daily). Wondering if I should take it at the same time or at a different time? My doctor said it should not matter. I am not up to the full dose yet, but will be taking 3 a day. Any tips? It is too early to know for sure, but so far I am feeling

So glad to find you!
Also on Exelon patch and
Amantadine
. About a month ago I added Mannitol with some pretty good improvements in cognition, attitude, my voice, constipation, a few fine motor issues, that have really felt like huge baby steps of hope! (Although it has not impacted the tremors at all...

Amantadine
My neurologist prescribed
Amantadine
for MS related fatigue, but I've been afraid to take it because of the possibility of insomnia which I can't tolerate because of restless legs. But the fatigue is just getting so bad. Do any of you take it for fatigue? Does it cause insomnia?

Let me introduce myself.
I also take ZOLOFT, MIRAPEX,
AMANTADINE
, NAMENDA (a precautionary measure) and MIDODRINE (for low blood pressure). I’m reluctant to share dosage amts as everyone’s needs are so different. •I’m not a candidate for DBS since it’s primarily used for severe tremors, which I don’t have.

PD individual evolution
Other than these I do not have yet other symptoms and I do not take any medication even I was prescribed levodoba and
amantadine
. I noticed the self control and fighting the stress and depression plus sports are very helpful in slowing down the disease.

New PD owner
One gave me levodoba the other
amantadine
. I fell into a big depression. I had trouble concentrate and I'm a computer programmer. Finally I decided to fight back and ignore the PD and be the same like I was before. It helped a lot. I did not start yet any medication.

Confused and overwhelmed
I currently take only the prescription drugs directed by my neurologist which consist of rytary,
amantadine
, ropinerole, methylphenidate. I exercise daily but it’s not enough and my progression downward continues, I’m freezing up more often, my tremors are getting worse etc.

15 Years on Mirapex
Also,
Amantadine
