Has Anyone Experienced PBA?

A MyMSTeam Member asked a question 💭
Stafford, VA

I’m definitely experiencing the symptoms but not sure if it is PBA. My neurologist says I’m very depressed and I read PBA can be misdiagnosed as depression.

I suffer from depression and PBA (cry with bad shakes and anxiety). I take Prozac and Nuedexta.

I did for awhile till I learned to control it with Prozac (I take it at night) I would cry for no reason and laugh for no reason There is another medication for PBA Ask your neurologist
