This ranged from hunger pains and craving sweets to heartburn and nausea. I had noticed hyper-yawning attacks over the last year, but did not associate it with the Permax. This hasn't happened since I quit taking it. What really drove me to try cutting back was increased occurences of nausea. Then I noticed that I wasn't getting unbearably sleepy in the afternoon. This is just my experience and should not be taken as an endorsement to quit taking the drug. Many people take the drug without side effects and it does have benefits. Maybe it's just us stubborn people that can't tolerate the drug. Maybe they should do a study on mules to see if it makes them sleepy. :-) Phil Gesotti 50/46+
