Little choice but to try
Hello again Unfortunately the pregabalin 150mg seems to be having little effect been back to doctors and his given me Neupro 1mg patch to try, having augmented on ropinirole and
Mirapex
I'm pretty sure this isn't the answer but the doctor had emailed a local neurologist and this was what he recommended

Medication Usage
I currently take
Mirapex

Whoa! Day 28 of Mirapex withdrawal
I’ve been warned this can happen from the
Mirapex
withdrawal but I didn’t expect it to just without warning BOOM & completely try to drown me. I want to sue the hell out of the drug manufacturers for this.

Too much Sinemet
She started by taking
Mirapex
when she was first diagnosed about 5 years ago. Even a small dosage was putting her to sleep for long periods of time. Her neurologist put her on Sinemet instead.

Sugar
Has anyone ever stopped eating any thing which contains sugar and I mean everything including jam, wine etc. Im becoming more and more convinced that its sugar that affects me. After my normal eating days and my usual meds I was at an all day lunch yesterday with lots of wine, desserts, cakes as well

Unhappy legs
I have taken
mirapex
and ropinerole and gabapentin. Gabapentin makes my legs swell and doesn't help my legs. I have to keep going up on the mg. Of the
mirapex
but now the doctor just doesn't get the fact that it isn't really helping anymore. The patches we're a joke, they did nothing for me.

Doc is adding Mirapex to Sinemet ...
Decision was to try
Mirapex
. Starting with a .25mg Rx ... take 1/2 tablet a day for 5 days and then titrate up slowly over the next three weeks to 3 pills a day. I am reading up on this medication, and it seems like it is very scary stuff!

Restless Arm Syndrome -Restless Hand Tremor
Tried Sinemet - no response, Tried
MIrapex
2X,3X with some relief but side effects are an issue, .25mg Xamax helps but not enough to allow sleep. Only med that tames the problem is Oxycodone which I take for the extremes of global body pain but my allowance for the drug is controlled.

Tramadol, Lyrica, etc
GP said if he could not tolerate the side effects of Lyrica, he should try
Mirapex
next. Hesitant to do so reading about it on this blog. Like a lot of you, he takes one around 6:30 PM and then two when he thinks he might try to go to bed (11:00 PM ish).

Day 6 of Mirapex withdrawal
Just when I feel like myself I’m afraid I’m gonna leave again 😏😳😬😥😰😱🥺 This is Day 2 of a 30 day withdrawal from
Mirapex
. I’ve been on this evil prescription med for more than 15 years for increasingly severe Restless Legs Syndrome.

Into TRITON II - and awaaay we go!
OK, 2 weeks into the trial. 75% of participants get nausea, vomiting. I never do anything the way others do so none of that for me. Instead constipation with stool as hard as concrete. Miralax, senokot magnesium citrate, Gavrilate. Nothing. So into the ER where the X-ray shows "you're full of it

New medication
Just went to see the doc about switching around meds and she told me to increase the
mirapex
🙁 I told her about augmentation and she said she knew nothing about that. So here I am, about to take two pills instead of one now. She also recommended taking gabapentin if this increase isn’t helping.

Giving up
I’m still taking the second lowest dose of
mirapex
and it’s not doing anything at all.. taking magnesium 200mg a night and cutting back on my caffeine intake.
