Hi, Barbara Mallut <[log in to unmask]> I was getting this form of auditory hallucinations, but I put a rationale to it. I believe that Pergolide (and to a lesser extent, Ropinirole) can create hypersensitivity, or should it be hyperacuity?, and the translation one's brain makes of all these usually unheard noises is to put them into a day-to-day context - viz burglars! Check that out with your friend, will you?
