How to come off Ropinerole
I’ve had crazylegs for years. Just like my pop. Been on Mirapex and Ropinerole. Tried to alternate every year or so. Last couple months my symptoms have gotten much worse. Any suggestions about how to get off 2mg if Ropinerole and what to take instead?

Help Staying Asleep!!
I have Parkinson’s and I’m 59. Had it for awhile I guess. I go to bed around 10:00 pm and wake up around 2:00 am. I lay alone on the sofa until morning. I want to sleep so desperately. Falling asleep is easy. Staying asleep is impossible. I’ve tried everything natural there is on the market. I take a

I need some guidance on DAWS.
Hello! I went off Mirapex for RLS about two weeks ago. I was on one mg. I should have tapered (I realize that now). The depression is overwhelming, and I’m afraid it’s never going to end.

Heavy rectal bleeding / with blood clots.
I have tried creams, sitz baths soaking,
Miralax
, Mineral oils and adding extra fiber to make the passing of stool "not so hard" but hard, soft, smooth there is always blood mixed in my stool/fills the bowl and then, will just one day stop for a few weeks before coming back.

Graphic photos but I need opinions could this be Crohn's or Colitis?
I cannot go to the bathroom without
miralax
help right now, and when I do go it's straight diarrhea and small amounts with large mucus clots. I don't feel like I'm fully emptying my bowels. I'm having what feels like pulsating feelings in my guts.

Weight gain and side effects of mirapex(pramipexole)
I have been seeing my neurologist for about 4 years and the only thing that seems to work is mirapex. I take minimum of 4 pills (sometimes as much as 8 pills of 1 mg. a night. I have gained 50 lbs. on this medication but it seems like it is the only med that helps. Should I try gabapentin maybe. I can

9 months pregnant without a baby
I was told to take
Miralax
which I do everyday and advised to get on birth control to shrink the cysts but my husband and I were considering having another baby so I opted not to do that.

RLS and Pain
Dear All, I did the math on a calculator and about fell off the chair. I have had RLS for 49 years. and I know the very night it started. Wow, that's amazingly awful. It took me several years to find Mirapex which does help. I hate Mirapex because of the side effects. I love Mirapex because it does help

Alternating Requip and Mirapex?
I, too, had problems with requip augmenting. Has anyone tried switching to Mirapex when Requip starts augmenting and then back again when Mirapex starts augmenting?

Might PD pharmaceuticals restore my athletic performance?
Hello. This week marks 1 year since my official PD diagnosis, although I had symptoms for a few years prior. I knew what was coming as my mother has battled PD for over 20 years. One thing that has bothered me is my slower speeds at both bicycling and walking. I have been a bicyclist for over 30 years

Potassium results
due to the cancer treatments I have to take stool softeners and
Miralax
daily. I wonder if this is the cause of the Potassium results as they route "water" to your colon and via kidney. Any thoughts?

Rectocele...
My doctor suggested
Miralax
and put an order in for an ultrasound sometime in the next week. Is there anything to do in the meantime?

YES to CAFFEINE for RLS
Reading all these posts is driving me crazy. Mirapex, lyrica, Ropinirole, Gabapentin... so many drugs. I've tried them all over the years. Some worked. Some didn't, like Gabapentin, not real great for RLS. But after many many years of severe RLS, what did I find that works? CAFFEINE! Try 1/4 to 1/2

Try Caffeine for RLS
I've had RLS since I was young. Of course I never knew what it was, or if it even had a name until I was in my 30s. I am now 56. I have used mirapex and lyrica with success, but they made me gain weight. About 12 years ago, by accident, I found that CAFFEINE was the answer. Yes, believe it or not, caffeine

No longer on Mirapex and I'm drug free!
So, I was diagnosed with RLS during a sleep study over 10 years ago and I was put on.50 mg of Mirapex. It worked wonderful for a long time. I began to notice that my RLS was getting worse. In fact, I discovered that the Mirapex was the culprit! I went off it cold turkey with no ill effects! I don't suffer
