Augmentation - please help
Hi all, I am just new in this forum. I am basically desperate, my neurologist does not believe in augmentation and all he says is to increase the dose of Mirapexin I am taking. This is not working and I am suffering every day more and more, affecting me in every level of my life as I don’t get to rest

Feeling great with compression
I also take CBD oil, magnesium and other electrolytes, eat low carb diet, and.0625 mg
Mirapex
. I just started 100 mg Gabapentin...which I may discontinue. Of all the above, compression socks and stockings made the biggest impact.

Finally off Mirapex
Finally off the dreaded Dopamine Agonist,
Mirapex
and I’m suffering like crazy! I don’t even know how much Kratom I’ve taken tonight! I have my ice packs on and they’re not helping. I might as well bite the bullet while I’m sick and suffer through it.

Will the effects of augmentation ever go away?
I believe this is from augmentation as a result of taking
Mirapex
. Is this permanent? Will these issues in my arms and chest subside once I am off of
Mirapex
completely?

Just read article that Kefir (drink) is better than Probiotic yogurt for IBS and IBS-C. Does anyone take this..is it helpful for IBS, IBS-C?
Hi, I have severe and chronic constipation, and nothing helps..nothing! I have tried it all. My last options are 2-3 stool softeners a day (Colace), and Senna once a week on Sundays which is an excellent laxative. But it disrupts my life, I have been on once a week Senna for about 8 years. Stool softeners

Clonidine to counteract alertness from Opioid
Hi - After taking
mirapex
for 10 years and then augmenting, withdrawal etc, (many of you know the awful drill,) I was prescribed low dose oxycodone which resolves the RLS symptoms completely, but seems to cause inability to sleep or alerting.

After 5 years of being on
Mirapex
, I have developed some symptoms of neuropathy in my feet and hands. My primary care doctor believes the
Mirapex
is responsible.

Coming off Mirapex
Second night using CBD and I actually slept about 5.5 hours. What a difference. It’s only day 2 but I’m feeling a bit better.

Hi folks, I was on
Mirapex
since 1998 and just came off about 10 days ago. I thought I was losing my mind, no sleep, feeling right out of it.

Which therapy helped you the most?
These drugs, including pramipexole (
Mirapex
), rotigotine (Neupro), and ropinirole (Requip), act like the neurotransmitter dopamine in the brain. Side effects include daytime sleepiness, nausea, and lightheadedness.

Uneducated Doctors!!
Like
Mirapex
is some kind of narcotic or something! Their lack of knowledge is so frustrating for me! I just want to scream! You can’t wean off
Mirapex
in a month. That damn nurse is always grouchy and testy! Atlanta’s sleep center through Emory University is calling me...
