Tramadol aka ralivia
Having augmented on virtually all
dopamine
agonists and reading about the effectiveness of Tramadol on this website, I am making the switch. I have reduced mirapex by half and will continue to wean myself off with the help of Tramadol.

Have you considered DBS? It is recommended for people with midstage PD who for whom meds are no longer working well!
After having the surgery myself and speaking with other patients, I am convinced DBS can potentially help any symptom affected by the lack of
dopamine
.

All of the medications that have been prescribed for me have produced such horrible side effects that I no longer take any of the usual
dopamine
-type medications.

Codeine
I'm trying not to go down the
dopamine
agonist route which entails a 2 in 3 chance of augmentation. In my view a short term fix for a long term problem. Any comments would be much appreciated. Many thanks. Terri

Relapse
I also did not feel well after the
dopamine
injection that cigs give you, rather I felt on edge, and anxious. After 25 years of smoking I realise that smoking is purely nicotine addiction, a poison that does not belong in the human body. Life is much better without nicotine.

First time
We've tried patches carbo lev o with extenders he was getting over
dopamine
, now his body seems to be failing more and has a window of 2 maybe 3 hrs. Before his p.d. attack s between doses... Does anyone have p.d.attacks daily? I'm trying to care for him and help him through them.

wellbutrin (bupropion) potential problems
I got interested in Wellbutrin because it increases
dopamine
and norepinephrine. It's used a fair amount in PD for psychiatric problems (depression, panic attack obsessiveness, and lack of desire), but there are an uncomfortable number reports of it causing parkinson's symptoms.

Knowledge is Power: understanding our medications.
If you then have a long gap before the next pill you are likely to dip very low and again the next dose has catch up and can take an age to raise the level of
dopamine
in the body and it becomes a fluctuating on off type cycle. Smaller doses more frequently is the usual answer.

Hypothyroidism & Dopamine Deficiency?
At this current moment I'm trying to gather and read as much as possible into
dopamine
and how it interacts with the thyroid. I've read both that low
dopamine
can cause hypo and hypo can bring on a
dopamine
deficiency.

Functional Neurology
Up until this time I had only been on Azelac, and some
dopamine
supplements (mucuna pruriens), Looking back, I realize that I should have gone back to my functional neurologist for some intensive exercises and get my brain reengaged soon after .

A high level of urate in a man's blood may signal a lower likelihood of developing Parkinson's disease.
It results from the loss of
dopamine
-producing brain cells. The main symptoms are tremor or trembling, rigidity or stiffness of the limbs and body, slowness of movement and impaired balance and coordination.

Fava beans and Parkinsons
Has anyone contemplated eating
dopamine
-rich food instead of medications? I'm still battling with myself whether to fill the prescription for neupro patch 2mg per day. Anyone do the patch alone, no other meds?

Have you ever suffered a dopamine agonist trigger persistent OH? (orthostatic hypotension: low blood pressure / dizzyness upon standing)

Dopamine
agonists tied for first place among ~100 other drugs suspected to cause OH http://www.pitt.edu/~super4/lecture/lec0632/surveillance.html This
