Anybody, feedback please.

Although I have found Amantadine to be very helpful at reducing extreme
fatigue, I have been having unpleasant side effects (swelling ankles and
"livido reticularis").  I have (with MD concurrance) been slowly phasing
it out.  It has been suggested I might try taking Eldepryl (selegiline)
instead.

I have read the PDR literature on this and I think it looks kind of
extreme and maybe risky.  Does anyone on the list have experience with
Eldepryl, good or bad?

I am also taking an unnamed dopamine agonist, in a long term clinical
trial.  So far, my approximately 18 month experience with this new
agonist is very positive, with no noticeable side effects.
