Hi All, It has been awhile since I posted, but except for being 20 or 30 digests behind, I am up to date. Does that make any sense? While visiting my brother in upper NY state early last month, I was amazed at the amount of energy and "on" time he has in the morning before taking any medication. He has the insomnia that many of you have and daily rises at a very early hour as he has finished sleeping for the night. He first goes to his exercise room and works out for about 45 minutes and then, at least while I was visiting, proceeds to the kitchen to bake. On successive mornings I awoke to the wonderful aroma of homemade strawberry pie, lemon meringue pie, bran muffins, corn bread and raspberry buckle. His wife says he does this on a regular basis, and if there is time before the rest of the household awakes, he throws in a few loads of laundry. I returned home with a suitcase of clean clothes! He follows this with a time of meditation. But later in the day, he has his "off" time and has recently started, for lack of a better way of phrasing it - to trip over his own feet. He doesn't quite fall, but I wonder if that is coming. For those of you who do fall, was it preceded by a period of time when you stumbled only? He attributes this good time of the day to the mirapex he has been taking for about 7 months now.
