Dear Bruce, I am 48 years old & have been taking Permax in different strengths for 12 years. At this time I take 6 or 7 - 1 mg. per day. They help my Sinemet 25/100 work better. My major problem is profuse sweating. I had DBS (both sides) in Phila. 10/30/2000. Without it I would be in a wheelchair by now. Best wishes for a cure- Paula from Pennsy. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce & Helen McCallum" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Sunday, August 18, 2002 2:32 PM Subject: Permax causes festination? > Does anyone else experience increased festination with taking Permax?
