Dear Cathy,
I sweated profusely for 4 years. My doctors couldn't figure out why --
tested hormones and thyroid, etc. I was diagnosed with PD in January 2002
and started taking Mirapex in March. I didn't tolerate the Mirapex well,
so now take Requip. Since I started taking the Requip, I don't sweat like I
did before. I think it's the PD.
Hope this helps.

> Charlotte You are correct in saying that 6mg of Requip is
not a therapeutic dose. I had such a bad experience with Mirapex (sleeping)
that we are increasing the dose of Requip slowly. The dosage has just been
increased to 2mg 3times daily along with Selegiline 5mg 2times daily. I am
starting to have a little more energy but I am still very slow!
I was wondering if anyone else on the list has noticed an intolerance to
heat. I live in Illinois and it has been really warm (90's) and if I am
outside only a short time, I sweat profusely. I am wondering if it is the
disease or the meds. Thanks Cathy
