Eddy, Amantadine will often abate many PD symptoms that present themselves as a rapid change in condition. It has relatively few side effects. If your wife has not tried it you may want to discuss with her doctor.

During the past few weeks my wife has experienced unusually severe and prolonged bouts of " Freezing", which in tern is causing numerous, and needless to say, painful cases of falling. If anyone out there has had any sucess in overcoming this problem, or diminishing it in any way, we would certainly appreciate your advice. Thank you.
