Myron: Thank you for your sharing of experience with Mirapex. The only drug I've serious problems was with Cogentin. I was a real whacko with that. I do have some concerns with Sinemet and Permax that I have started taking. I do now take meds for hallucinatios, pyschotic episodes. I have very bad lightheadedness. I was told to just keep taking until they say stop. I just got a rail for the bed at an estate sale for $2.00. Nice very nice, don't have to use the wall with foot to get up. Got bathtub rail (estate sale-$6.00). Selling my car, can't drive much anymore. The doctors never warned me about all the things to change in my life. I have read posts from you and was impressed with your knowledge and compassion for others on the List. I also believe you have a very good CG. We are so lucky if we have caring people in our lives. If you feel like chatting at any time, please feel free to do so. I don't get out much and I love having the computer. I still have independence. Hugs to you, both Gina 47/6 months Indiana
