Well, I'm not in too bad a shape. I am looking for much more, though. If I were even 50% improved, I would return to work. The addition of memantine (Namenda) proved to be a failure. In fact, it made me feel significantly worse. When I came off of it, I had to wait a few days for my condition to rebound, as memantine has such a long half-life (60-80 hours). This time, I experienced a rebound improvement that lasted for 2-4 days. It was nice while it lasted. I see my doctor today. I'm going to ask to try Topamax again. The last time I tried it, I had not been on Parnate and nortriptyline, so I consider it a new trial.
Thanks for asking.
:-)
