FYI.... I was prescribed the drug PEMOLINE last week to see if it would alleviate the terrible, bone crushing, daily PD-related fatigue I've lived with for the past several years. Well... there's good news and there's bad news: The good news is the drug DID keep me awake in the afternoons. The bad news is when it wore off in about 4 hours, I crashed into THE most unbelievable sleepiness imaginable! I was WASTED for the rest of the day! Total ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ! I experimented with the amount of time between first and second doses during the day and still had the same reaction about 4 hours after taking the initial dose of the day. YIKES!!!! I don't want to struggle on thru a reasonable test period with this drug to see if I adjust any better to it. I don't like feeling like a ZOMBIE! Adios Pemoline. <yawning> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask]
