I have had severe dyskinesias for the past 10 years, most of the time, amantadine does help. but i am up to 5 pills a day over four doses per day. The DBS surgery I had l-12 years ago stopped the dyskinesias com[letely but then I got an infection and had to have the stimulators removed. I strongly suggest that those of you out there that have had your doctors suggest that you might have a quality o f life that would be improveddd---------I urge you to go for it" carol gray ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
