Interesting discussion about this drug. I take Eldepryl 5 mgs x2 daily. And must admit I enjoy being revved up a bit. So I'll take the risk with it in the hope it really does have a protective effect. I have experienced vivid dreams, but no real sleep disturbance ... or if there is I can usually attribute it to other factors - heat, noise or having slept rather wwell during the day. I use a few drops of a blend of aromatic esssential oils on my temples at bedtime - a friend mixes me a special recipe for PD which includes lavender (induces sleep), bergamot and ?? orange ... I think. Regardless of its - ? perceived - effectiveness, it has become one of the few PD-related rituals I find luxuriously enjoyable. Valerian 'tea' is another pleasant way of winding down to sleep. Beth Leslie
