Not living in the real world….really horrible!
Hi. My brother is recently home from hospital after 18 months following a brain injury. He is experiencing a strange sense of reality where everything feels like a dream. It is very distressing for him. Has anyone had similar and worked through this? He is taking amantadine drug. I believe this can cause

Sudden loss of ability to move?
Hello all, I haven't been posting much. But I'd appreciate your advice. On Friday, my husband was going about his day, had driven to the grocery pickup, got home, and then started to have small hallucinations (ants that weren't there) and vomited. He texted for me to come home from work, and in the

Amantadine : is it Neuroprotective? Can it reduce glutamate excitoxicity?
Anyone taking amantadine? It may be slowing progression. Looking in to means of reducing glutamate excitoxicity which is shown to increase decline, I happened upon the knowledge that Amantadine, is a NMDA receptor antagonist. What I have read so far suggests that Amantadine is indeed Neuroprotective

Any advice about weaning off of levodopa and starting amantadine.
I have developed dyskinesia and doctors tried reducing levodopa thinking I was getting too much but dyskinesia persisted.

PTT FUS in Switzerland - 1 year update
First of all, i would like to write this update after i have been rechecked by the doctors in Switzerland , which was supposed to be in the beginning of January, but due to COVID restrictions, i wasn’t unable to fly.

COVID brain impact similar to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Apart from the AMN, I am generally healthy and not particularly worried about Covid. Maybe because I had my three vaccines and always wear a mask outdoors. I do, however, have one friend who [i]had Long Covid for over a yea[/i]r. And I have posted here before about various of these diseases having

HOW CAN I REDUCE MY DYSKINESIA?
I am desperate for suggestions on reducing dyskinesia. I have had gate and balance dominant PD for 11 years now and have always struggled with dyskinesia. Recently I had a fractured femur and am attempting to resume walking with the the help of a walker. However, the dyskinesia is so strong I cannot

Treatment with amantadine delays L-dopa-induced dyskinesia onset more than treatment with other symptomatic agents
Could early treatment with amantadine delay L-dopa-induced dyskinesia onset more than treatment with other symptomatic agents (anticholinergics or MAO-B inhibitors)? New data from a hospital-based retrospective cohort study from Taiwan suggests 'yes' https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ene.15234

Oral Molecule PD13R Safely Eases Dyskinesia Tied to Levodopa in Primate Model

I am newly diagnosed and on amantadine 2x daily. I notice I feel much more tired on a daily basis than I used to. I take 1 -2 naps a day.
Is this a symptom of PD, the medication, both or neither?

AMANTADINE FOR DYSKINESIA. HAVE YOU AN EXPERIENCE WITH THIS DRUG? PLEASE HELP.
Hi, I might consider this drug for Dyskinesia, if it gets too severe. My MDS is a little reluctant to prescribe it, because he says it may cause insomnia. Nevertheless, is this drug working for your dyskinesia? How long before it started working for you? My doctor said it could take 4 to 8 weeks.

What I have learned from 1 year with Early Onset PD - "Glass Half Full"
I decided to keep a journal of my journey - it has been quite a year but I have learned a lot. some of which maybe relevant for new and older PD people. I am not a doctor and this is not a medical opinion but there is lots available to make a stand against PD https://fightparkinsonsdisease.files.wordpress.com

Hi, your suggestions would help a lot. I am beginning to have dyskinesia more frequently. Mostly worse at night. I take Rytary 3pills 145mg, (8am,12noon,4pm and 8pm). My MDS thinks it is motor fluctuations, caused by uneven plasma level of Levodopa. He suggested that I should add two more pills,

Amantadine for tremor?
I've needed to write a long post (or a few separate posts) for weeks now, but I'm just too busy. I'm going to try to make time to do some thorough updates on my situation soon, but I have an immediate question: I can't tolerate Sinemet (tried it from Jan. 16-Mar. 10, 2021), so my neuro (MDS) wants me
