Hi Paul, I was interested to read in your letter about the massive doses of medicines and antioxidants you are taking. I take 4 doses of sinemet (25/ 100) and 6 mg of Requip per day. Are you nervous about the side effects of the Requip that you read about? Sometimes I get really sleepy so as of late, I postpone taking my dose when I know I'll be driving home (30 minutes) on the odd chance that I may fall asleep. The increase in the Requip is a fairly recent change and so far the effect has been pretty positive. I'm more energetic, and less stiff. Tremors and slow movement are still a major problem though. Work is super stressful now though and I want to see how I feel in a week or so when I go off track and start a new teaching assignment. Thanks for sharing your regimen.
