Hi Scott,
Good luck with the retrial. If memantine doesn't pan out for your on this second go-around, at least you can say you gave it the best trial you could.
Interesting that you had the weakness also. So I'm not losing my mind. I'm distressed by how quickly my muscles are fatiguing in classes at the gym. And we're talking like 2 lb hand weights. My legs were extremely weak in step class, which is unusual. Did you also feel an increased need to stretch your muscles? I'm really hoping this will resolve.
As for augmenting, unfortunately I can't do the selegiline. I used it for quite a while and I had a lot of good days on it, but I finally realized it was fueling some sort of nasty cycling. Wellbutrin = too stimulating. Maybe I'll ask my doctor about adderall. I'm trying a speck of provigil to help with the fatigue.
