My Neurologist In April Started Me On Venlafaxine And Amantadine To Supplement My Current Regimen Of 1600 Mg Daily Carbidopa-levodopa.pa.

Unfortunately, my symptoms have worsened since I started the additional meds, My speech is getting worse, my freezing is worse, I have started having tremors for the first time. I sent an email to my Dr. and have an appt later this month. But am wondering if any one else has any experience with those meds.

Thanks, John Hower

John,
From my perspective it seems like if you have taken more meds and worsening of your symptoms that you have a chance to have your diagnosis be much better than you had the first time you got "Sentenced".
