Hi Martha,
So sorry to hear all you having been going through. I take only mestinon and very sparingly because of the side effects. As others have said, always take it with food. I take half then wait a half hour and take another half. It seems to help some. I read someone takes Pepcid and it helps. Did you ask your neuro to reccommend something? Please don't give up, it will get better. Let us know how you are doing. Take care.
Hugs,
Pat
