Dear Mark Snap! I'm 49, and have had this thing about 25 years. I'm currently taking sinemet and mirapex. I sleep bertween two and four hours a night. And then during the daytime - just pick the most embarrassiini'g time - I'll nod off! I've been knnown to fall asleep duriing exercise class, standing on my feet praying in synagogue - thank goodness I don't drive any more. I have had to learn not to be anywhere potentially embarrassing at 11am and 3 pm! Anyway the only advice I can give you is - live with it, and find something to do during the hours you can't sleep.. I think every one has realised what I do by now - and being able to communicate with you all on the listserve has been a lifesaver. Thanks.
