Bad night so far
I'm climbing the walls tonite. I realized I forgot to take my Mirapex for the last two nights. Waiting for the meds to kick in now. I can't even imagine weaning myself off.

Last resort
I have had RLS for 20 years. When I first had it . no one knew what it was. I suffered for years before a neurologist gave it a name and saved my life, literally. He put me on Mirapex and I was on it for many years. I had to up the dose many times. I then did some research on the drug and got worried

What medications or natural alternatives
I was diagnosed a year ago and have left side tremors and stiffness but now fatigue is killing my life. I have tried acupuncture and glutathione IV's but no better. Finally tried Mirapex for 2 days but couldn't function. Do side effects go away or better to try l dopa. I was trying to go natural. Any

Neuro 3mg patch no longer working & now back on Mirapex - help!
After 2 months of the Neupro patch working for me I started getting very red raised rashes, which also itched like crazy....and often headaches. My dr now suggested going back on Mirapex 2 mg....I'm terrified because it also worked initially, but then had augmentation & symptoms got even worse....walking

mucana capsule dosage
i have had PD for about 16 years. I have never been on Sinemet, except for a couple weeks. I am now on 100 mg of Mirapex 3X A DAY AND AMANTADINE 100mg. 3 X a day. I would like to try taking Mucuna capsules. I have one bottle of Mucuna distributed by Himalaya from India. The label says...organic velvet

50 Y/O with years of RLS experience
Without Pramipexole I would never sleep. That being said, I absolutely hate Pramipexole. I've been on it for about 12 years after a sleep study said I had 333 leg movements per hour. I am on 1 mg per night. Sometimes need .5 in the afternoon. Doc says not enough to cause any side effects. I call bull

Mirapex reaction??
Am having strange reaction to Mirapex. Was on super low dose by MDS doc and had to lower that dose after immediate anxiety and worsening leg tremors were the result of first "low" dose prescribed by doc (1/2 tab 3x per day). She suggested I allow the lower dose (1/4 tab 4 x per day) to continue for

Parkinsons detox
I just joined this forum after seeing my mom struggle so much with her PD. Over the years have introduced mucana , a few supplements , exercise etc , but a recent fall has really pushed her back where she is tired, sleepy and can barely walk (she was only walking with the helper before also) . Wish

What helps reduce Dyskinesia .
We are giving her sinemet , amantadine, Mirapex etc. Over the years we have reduced the amount of sinemet (I think she was overdrugged in the beginning - and we couldn't tell as her tolerance to meds was good ) . Now 1/4 sinemet every 2 hours , to try and follow the less meds at more frequent interval

Poor balance
My main issue is poor balance which does improve with exercise but not to the point to which I want. Mirapex does nothing for it. Do you think adding NADH and or Mucina to my list of supplements would help? Or anything else? Thank you T

PMR vs. Restless leg syndrome
I have had Restless leg syndrome for years. I have taken many different meds. and homeopathic alternatives through the years. Presently, I am taking Mirapex, but it is no longer helping. Ever since I started walking again after I broke the tibia and fibula above my left ankle, I have experienced restlessness

I could have been all the RLS posters
It is amazing and sad that when I read these posts its as if I had written them I have had RLS since 1972, for the first few years it would come and go but it never went far!!! I wish someone would come up with that magic pill we're all looking for. My legs and arms have been so horrible for the past

Frustrated
I am feeling overwhelmed with the meds my husband is on and they don't seem to help. We cut his sine met back to four times daily. The added mirapex to help, started him on the full dose three times daily and it just knocked him for a loop. I finally got them and they started with a low dose and we are

Trying gabapetin 300 mg for first time.
Switched from mirapex to Requip on which my RLS went crazy. Trying gabapetin 300 mg for first time tonight. My legs are squirming already. I've read where others are taking 900 mg plus. Is there anyone who has taken only 300 mg with success. I also take trazodone 150 mg at night and don't sleep.

Kratom and Cannabis for relief of RLS, and depression and anxiety.
I've been taking Wellbutrin and Serzone for depression and anxiety. Well I've been having RLS since taking them so I've decided to see my doctor and tell her It's unbearable and I'm taking my natural treatments that provides me relief. My mother took mirapex and it didn't help so now she takes requip

Feeling terrible on Mirapex PR
Just been on the prolonged release for a week and feel so bad, very sick and troubled. I think that the dosage is more than before which i certainly did not want. The Kings college RLS clinic thought that it might help with sleep. (but it does not) I have just e mailed them and also asked my doctor
