Gee Whiz, Barb Blake-Krebs! We can't have our List's only PWP who is a weekly radio host suffering from new rigidity! That won't do! If you were better ON it, how about going back on Tasmar, but in 50 mg increments to build slowly up to a tolerable and beneficial level? The Seeses wrote me, as have others, wonder what you think? My neuro and I signed a release to continue. I am not having any problems--but I would if I dropped the Tasmar!! I would say, ask your neuro to re-evaluate ASAP.
