Supplement breakthrough but now what??
It has been well controlled through
Mirapex
/Ropinirole but a couple of months ago it seemed to not be working as well. Started feeling symptoms in my arms and onset was earlier in the day. Even would wake up some days with symptoms which has never happened.

Jumpy legs!!!!
I was given
Mirapex
which worked very well at first. I became used to it I suppose and had to increase the dosage. When I was at 4 times the original dose and still having issues, I had to stop all together to "reset" my body.

RLS Intro
I wear the rotigone patch and take some
mirapex
. It gets worse with age. i am 58. I do not have any hope for real sleep in my lifetime. I just battled jaw cancer wear they took the fibula bone out of one leg to put in my jaw. imagine how happy my fibromyalgia and RLS and PLMD were about that.

Drastic medication side effects
Mirapex
was the first rx I used. It worked for quite a while but the side effects caught up with me. I had sudden onset of extreme sleepiness while driving. Crossed the road into a ditch and couldn’t be seen from the road.

IBS-C FODMAPS
Hello, new here. Been playing trial and error with diet over the past several months with no luck for my bloating or stomach pain. I was taking miralax, probiotics and digestive enzyme EVERY day which seemed to help at first but then relapsed. I finally stopped taking everything about a month ago

An Update Post from Lonely7
But on Sunday evening past I bravely attempted to go it on one
Mirapex
and had a real bad reaction for about four hours. It was then that I took another
Mirapex
and things began to level out again.

Managing medication
I was taking
mirapex
which worked fairly well taking some in middle afternoon, some around dinner and some before bed. The two side effects that were the most prominent were sudden onset of extreme sleepiness and compulsiveness.

Entacapone
Hi I was weaned off Mirapexin due to spending issues and weaned on Entacapone. My partner said my mood swings on this were awful. I never felt lime me and felt mad and aggressive as if I wanted to murder someone!! Hence I've stopped it completely. Has anyone else had similar problems?? Only problem now

Wanting to discontinue Mirapex
I would like to discontinue
Mirapex
after using for over 20 years for RLS. I have read so many adverse side effects of this drug if taken for a long period of time. After reading some of the posts on this site, I am now very worried about doing it myself.

For my daytime RLS I've tried so many Rx's for RLS (
Mirapex
, Horizant, Neupro, etc.) and the only thing that helped me without the awful side effects was strong opioids, but my neurologist won't prescribe them, and my GP won't prescribe them because of all the talk about abusing opioids lately in the
