I pace, pace, pace... Then i get mad that I can't focus on anything to distract from the restlessness. (Thinking about too many things at once while trying to pace the restlessness away.)

Good Morning, blue. I just want to share...neither cogentin nor propanalol did anything to help my tremors and akathesia. Then my pdoc came up with the idea to try something called "Amantadine." It's been incredibly helpful. My hand tremor is down so low that I can write nicely without the letters going all over the place. Even the akathesia is much improved.
