Starting Lyrica
I started Lyrica about 3 weeks ago as I taper off of the awful
Pramipexole
. Anyway, I only take 120 mg at night, but during the day I have zero desire to do much of anything. Anyone experienced this? I so appreciate this forum! Tara

Dyskinesia from pramipexole
I've found an equivalency of 1,5 mgs of ropinirole to 1mg of
pramipexole
, but is that right? It seems more like I have to take double or more to get the same the same relief I get from the
pramipexole
.

Pramipexole and anxiety
I think I could get by with just that after I get off the
pramipexole
. Any thoughts?

Getting Worse??
I'm on Mirapex (
Pramipexole
) 50 Mg. I sometimes think that it's getting worse over the years. It's this happening to anyone else? I think sitting on hard surfaces can make it worse too so I try to avoid sitting on wooden benches, chairs etc. I also wonder about shoes...

No meds anyone?
I have had
Pramipexole
, and suffered augmentation. Then on to Tramadol, now augmenting on that. I asked my gp for something different all that was on offer was Ropinerole. I am trying yoga, it worked for a few days occasionally, but now has no effect whatsoever.

And now for the good news
Pramipexole
would appear to be the biggest monster.

Do I really have RLS
I never get it if I take my
pramipexole
around 4:00 pm everyday. Now here is the thing, I’m suppose to take 0.35 once a day which is a very low dose but I cut the pill in half and only take 0.17. I never have to take more and it does not build up in my body forcing me to.

I wonder if alternating would work
I took
Pramipexole
(mirapex) for quite a while at the lowest dose, then it stopped working. I then went on to Tramadol, and it is now nowhere near as effective as it once was, so presumably I am augmenting on this drug as well. Yoga sometimes helps, but not always.

Going Crazy!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been on
pramipexole
for several years, only taking it when I am under attack, now I have read that after taking it for several years it can worsen the RSL.

When to apply Neupro patch
Previously treated with
pramipexole
, up to 2.5 mg (my GP didn't know better, nor did I). The inevitable augmentation followed. After several 10-14 day washouts over the years (with help from oxycodone, since I don't subscribe to Dr.

Love some advice about oxycodone
I have been on
pramipexole
, gabapentin and Lyrica in the past but was unable to take any of these because of severe side effects. I worry about taking opioids constantly but RLS is completely out of control with flailing and jerking arms and legs during night and very little sleep.

Horrendous
I am on
Pramipexole
. Can't wait to get on that plane on Sunday for home, it's been the worse experience of my life.

Aching legs
Currently on a combination of
pramipexole
and pregabalin which controls the worst of the symptoms. My main problem at the moment is aching legs at night in bed. I usually manage about 5 hours sleep then the aching muscles wake me up. Once I'm up the aches disappear after a couple of hours.

Cipro and mestinon
Hi, have not wrote for awhile. Thanks to all who replied to my wife's charley horses which went into severe pain all over her body but all ways the legs. I use all the natural things you all mentioned. The pain at bottom of ribs above the stomach bothers me and why there. It has also caused her

New study; "...52% of people who had ever taken dopamine agonists developed an impulse control disorder..." 6/21/18 journal Neurology
Recent studies have suggested there may be a difference in the type of dopamine agonist used, with slow release tablets causing impulsive behaviours less frequently, and that
pramipexole
and ropinerole may be more likely to cause this side effect." https://medium.com/parkinsons-uk/do-dopamine-agonists-cause-impulsive-behaviour-b36a45813cca

What I wonder is when one has successfully come off
Pramipexole
or ropinlole ( not in my case) what does one do to combat rls? Or do you just have to suffer.
