Weighted blanket
I am on day 6 of no
mirapex
after augmentation. It’s been a rough week, last night I slept for 6 hours straight. More than I’ve slept in a week combined. I used a weighted blanket. Whether or not it’s a coincidence, not sure but it may have just been the extra help needed. Worth a try!

Nervous About Decreasing Mirapex
My V-A doctor in conjunction with pharmacist are reducing
Mirapex
from 5.0 mg daily to .75 mg daily. I am wondering exactly what to expect. I'm thinking it won't be easy or fun...HELP

RLS - meds
Hello, I have reached the point where Lyrica and
Mirapex
don't seem to be working for me as well - I take 2 of each every day. My worst period of time is between 7 p.m. and 1 a.m. Sometimes the meds work just fine, the other nights it is atrocious until either my meds start working or I pass out.

RLS and medications
I took
Mirapex
for 7 years but experienced augmentation. So, for the last 4 years, I have not taken anything. I had to retire early because of the lack of sleep due to the RLS. I developed a yeast infection and was given nystatin which is an antifungal medication.

Mirapex to replace Horizant.
Well. I believe I have a winner. I'm taking the minimum dose right now .125 mgs and I was told by the pain drs RN I can raise it upto .250 mgs. Monday if I need to. I'm gonna raise it because I have a little bit of RLS symptoms showing. Not anywhere near I was afraid I was going to have. Even the RN

Off Mirapex
Hello everyone, I am now 5 days off
Mirapex
of course was a slow weaning process. I am not sleeping but maybe 30-45 min here or there, having to walk the floors. I’m sure a lot of you would say get an opioid but docs are not too willing to write scripts.

Need Help and Advice On What I Can Do To Relieve The Intensity Level of My Current and Parkinsons Disease Symptoms
My medicine history started out with Requip and next was Comtan, then Amantadine followed by
Mirapex
and then Carbo Levadopa 25-100. I had a lot of fluctuations due to absorption etc.

Gabapentin dose increase or add mirapex?
I was wondering if it would mean a lower dose of the
mirapex
might be possible in combination with the gabap, so less risk of augmentatiin/ICD? Just thinking about plan b! Ferritin is 120 btw. Thanks Alison

Mirapex guilt
I've been on
Mirapex
for years and Gabapentin for a year. Both work well, i sleep 5-6 hours, and experience no RLS. After reading posts on here, I feel guilty for taking both meds, but if they work well, why is that so frowned upon? Isn't the ultimate goal relief and peace?

Natural Remedies for RLS
I’ve dealt with it for eleven years and have tried the usual prescriptions (Tramadol,
Mirapex
, etc.) with mixed results. Thanks!

What Meds are good for RLS for the elderly who hallucinate when taking Mirapex. How about Zolpidem/Ambian? I read zolpidem is an agonist.

Appointment with Dr. Buchfuhrer
It seems that all of you who are on the drugs like
Mirapex
or Ripinorole and not getting good results should look further into getting off of those and finding a doctor that will try other avenues. Of course, I can't recommend Dr. B highly enough. If this stops working, the great news is Dr.
