Request for algorithm

Hi Sue Johnson. Could you please send the Mayo Clinic algorithm for coming off Ropinerole? And also any other text that you may have which would be useful for me to print off to take with me to an appointment with a Nuerologist. I don’t know if he/she will know much about RLS and PLMD. If not I may be brave and show them this info! I don’t actually intend to come off the .Ropinerole as it will be too much with my cancer. But it demonstrates what a devilish thing this augmentation is. He/she may not even know about augmentation for all I know. Many thanks in advance. Ruth Ward.
