If I look into that dark backward and abysm of time it seems to me that i remember the first week or so, feeling a bit queasy - and being advised by my doctor to take my med with a cracker or yoghurt. Now i dont even use water if that is inconvenient - tho when i take them under ideal circumstances, i try to drink orange juice and or mountain dew - i'm not sure of the pharmacology, but it works - but those are subtleties you;ll learm as you become a vereran of PD mediacation. And hopefully there will be a real cure before then. hilary Edward Kleinmeyer wrote: > > Thanks Hilary, Isn't sinement the one that gives you the YUKS unless taken > with something else?
