I hope you're right...dad (69/5) asked to try Mirapex instead of Permax in mid-November, and that seems to have launched him on a quick trip down a slippery slope. It does seem like every time they've made a change in his meds he's had another problem. They added a second dose of Zyprexa yesterday, and even that did a number on him. His doc seems more concerned about how stiff he's getting, but I'd rather they give him a holiday and let his head clear. One doc told me to leave him alone for a month before restartimg anything. We're approaching two weeks in the hospital, and now they're talking extended care...I'm an optimist, and I still believe it's the meds, but I'm beginning to lose hope. Mark
