I learned on our recent little trip what happens when I don't take Amantadine:
My tremor gets worse, my foot turns in from dystonia, I have 'offs', I get frightened when confronted with door steps, my balance falls right off and I bang into everything.
One little pill each morning eliminates all of the above - I still have tremor, but not as much.
By the way, I think it must be my imagination, but I find the red Amantadine pills more effective than the yellow.......I admit to liking red better than yellow - so maybe if my carb/lev pills were red, they would also have more effect than the yellow ones I take? Anyone else here found a difference, or am I totally daft?
