Re: Permax causes festination?
Dear Bruce,
I am 48 years old & have been taking Permax in different strengths for
12 years. At this time I take 6 or 7 - 1 mg. per day. They help my Sinemet
25/100 work better. My major problem is profuse sweating. I had DBS (both
sides) in Phila. 10/30/2000. Without it I would be in a wheelchair by now.
Best wishes for a cure- Paula from Pennsy.
