Bill - It's really weird - I've recently started having almost identical
experiences - usually when i'm doing  xword puzzles.  I have the sense of
someone standing  slightly behind and to the right of me  just watching and
waiting .....spooookeeey.  I put it down to lack of sleep - i've not been
getting  much lately and it always happens late at night when i'm tired but
too stressed to go to bed.
BTW we have a similar drug cocktail. I have -sinamet CR 100/25 4x day
requip 2mg 3xday        Levadopa/carbidopa [non CR] 100/25 i a day
amantadine 100mg 1a day. Also -  Apo Nadol, LAsix, Eltroxin, Vioxx, Paxil and
Allopurinol plus a multi vit. TG we have universal medicare here
Anyway, FWIW, I decided that these "visions" were mild hallucinations possibly
caused by a combination of fatigue and meds.
Stay cool, Sylvia  66/dx88/onset86
