Allen and others,

I spoke with my neuro about the edema.  He wants to be sure it is the permax and
not the high heat we have been having.  If it is (and I think it is), then I
will go off permax and onto mirapex.  He said that only about 1% of people have
edema with permax, but he is glad he has another alternative for me.

 I am so glad I have him.  He is not a movement specialist, (the nearest one is
about 200+ miles away in the Bay Area, CA), but he works with PWP and has many
of us for patients.  He is also very honest about what meds will and will not
do.  He has allowed me leeway to find a balance I can live with.   He too is
anxious about the "sinemet patch" and wondering when it will be out here and
what it will do.

don't forget how to laugh
