I'm trying 2find out if Rimantadine is a proven treatment 4 p.d? My dr. put me in hospt. 2 c if can help my dysk. . I take amantadine .Not
working as well anymore. 250mg. in am,and 100mg. in pm. But when I was in hosp. they only had enough 4 1 dosing of 200mg. When it kicked in my dysk. was 2x worse. Then my dr. got bzy and the meds. were all but forgotten. So he wrote me a script. to go home with, to try it by mysef. Should I be concerned

Feedback please on ropinerole (Requip), benefits/issues when removed.
Okay, here's the scoop: I was diagnosed 2002, and had been feeling great most days with the usual down time after busy days, stress, etc., except for OCD and other side effects from Requip. PD off times are much worse since neuro's attempts to remove the Requip, (from 12 mg./a.m. to 1 mg./3xda. currently

After over ten years only cardopa- leva dopa in extended release plus short acting doses are doing some good. Any good ideas for rigidity?
Comtan, amantadine, mirapex, azilect psych/ side effects now terrifying. Lower body rigiidity is challenging mobility without a wheelchair.

Fatigue
I have been prescribed Amantadine for fatigue which I don't find effective and leaves me feeling heavy. I stopped taking this. What medications are you on and what is your experience?

Vision trouble
Lately I have been having a lot of trouble focusing especially my right eye on things. I usually use my right eye to line up things when I'm woodworking and making cuts and stuff. Sometimes when I'm trying to follow a line it and the saw blade both seem to disappear. Besides being disconcerting it's

Sharyn Update - PSP
Hi, just an update on my wife Sharyn who as PSP. When we saw the Neurologist last he and Sharyn and I didn't think the Carbadopa/Levadopa she was taking was working. She was on it, things didn't change, then off it, things didn't change. We thought there might be some VERY sight benefit that maybe

Is it me? or does everyone with PD ride this rollercoaster daily?
Everyday every two hours I go from nauseous and fuzzy to right as rain and back again. When I'm up I'm up and when I'm down I'm down. In the evening when I stop the meds I feel better but less mobile. I'm 47, dx'd 3 years, 3 kids at home (15, 12 and 6), self-empoloyed whew! What I'm on: stalevo

AMANTADINE, ANYONE HAD EXPERIENCE WITH IT POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE?
Just returned this week from our neurologist at University of Florida Neurological Clinic. He said to ease down until totally off Sintement (Carbadopa/Levadopa). Why, because we have been on it, off it, on it, off, it, on it, and don't detect any change. He is suggesting we try Amantadine which is

Does anyone have hallucinations from their PD meds.
I take requip 2/3 x, sinemet 4 x, amantadine 3 x, and 2 clonazepan at bedtime. Most of my hallucinations are of people that have passed. It kind of scares me from time to time. It doesn't happen all the time maybe once or twice a week.

It pays to price check prescription costs!! This website is a wonderful help!!
For anyone who is dependent on daily prescription medications, it really does pay to do your research. Each time Chris is given a new prescription or our insurance changes, I take on the task of calling and price checking at each pharmacy in our area. The last time our insurance changed and we suddenly

Does anyone wake in the night unable to move?
I have been taking about 1000mg of Sinemet for most of the past 5 years. More recently I have had to come off Amantadine due to difficult s/e. Now I find with Sinemet acting as a mono therapy I am feeling much more disabled. Any thoughts out there?

How much levodopa do you take?
My drug regime daily is: 1.25mg Zelapar, 750mg Sinemet Plus and 200mg of Sinemet Plus. I have been taking 300 mg of Amantadine but it led to the blotchy skin condition Livedo Reticulasis, urination difficulties and other disagreeable side effects. Amantadine did help me to cope better with pd and stopping

Has anyone tried Rimantadine?
This Rimantandine is similar to Amantadine without the major side effects-according to US pd blogsters who have used it. Both drugs have been around for over forty years so you would have thought it would be used widely in the UK if Rimantadine was safer. Puzzling!

Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN), good, bad or useless?
I know it has been asked before but has anyone got experiences with LDN (Low dose naltrexone)? I know it's a controversial subject but I would like to try to take LDN and see if I can titrate down the amount of stalevo I need. I currently take Stalevo (3x125 + 5x100), Azilect and Amantadine (3x100mg

Anyone trying LDN or interested in it?
I have recently had an appointment with my neurologist and, as expected, he told me basically that the only way to achieve a reasonable quality of life into the future is to have DBS surgery. He spoke of the risks, that not everyone is suitable etc etc. And that was it. DBS or continue to steadily decline

Amantadine Syrup
I've been diagnosed with PD since 2005...and have been on Amantadine 100 MG capsules, and other meds ever since. The effects of Amantadine capsules are dry throat, nose and eyes.My throat was so dry that I could feel the food I swallowed start to "stack up" and not go down. (This may sound weird, but

Has anyone had a bad reaction to a medication?
I had a bad reaction to Amantadine 2 years ago. After submitting a question about dystonia, two people responded as to how much Amantadine helped them. Since my PD is worse since then, I am a little tempted to try it again, but also very leery about trying it again. Has anyone had a bad reaction to
