I went to my neuro today and he gave me a new medicine to try for this awful fatigue. Well, an old medicine because it's been around forever. Has anyone been prescribed amantadine? Any luck with it?

I just started taking this, too. I feel like so far it's "ok" but not nearly as good as how I know I feel from the last medication I took for fatigue. Killed 3 birds with one stone but my new doctor's practice doesn't like prescribing narcotics so back to certain sufferings. Seems we'll never win the war but I'll take the small battles I can win.

I found escitalopram works better plus it helps anxiety

I have. It didn't work for me. Hope it does for you.

I've only been on it for a few days and haven't noticed a HUGE difference...but a small one. I'm more alert. Might give it some more time.

It didn't work at all for me, but everyone is different. Hope it works for you. Good luck
