To our TIRED Patricia--Peter can sympathize as he seems to be tired MOST of the time.This is especially true since he has reached a higher dose of Parlodel, (4 per day) whic shows no signs of helping him,sadly. We are going to cut back gradually,as the extreme somnolence and occasional confusion and non-existent critters (like the mouse in the pile of towels!)are unwelcome side effects. I wonder if your meds can be contributing to your fatigue? And of course PD in itself can cause a real "energy deficit" for some at times. While it has always been a problem for Peter, it is MUCH worse thispast week, so we're bailing out of Parlodel and hoping to try Pramipexole when it'savailable in a month or 2.
