In 7 years of PD, never heard of Apokinin pump!
Hi, am living in France, have been treated for PD for nearly 7 years (am 48 y. old) with Requip (2X 8) and Modopar 125 (4 pills a day). This is not really effective so when I heard that the Apokinin pump could be efficient (TV news tonight) according to the person who gave the testimony, I began searching

Mucuna pruriens caused unpleasant side effects
I have been on Mucuna pruriens for 4 weeks. I had decided to go off most of my Parkinson's meds or at least decrease the doses because of the headaches I was getting from gritting my teeth. The same thing happened to me when I took Paxil and stopped when I went off it. I titrated off azilect and 1

It pays to price check prescription costs!! This website is a wonderful help!!
For anyone who is dependent on daily prescription medications, it really does pay to do your research. Each time Chris is given a new prescription or our insurance changes, I take on the task of calling and price checking at each pharmacy in our area. The last time our insurance changed and we suddenly

Has anyone experienced withdrawal symptoms while tapering off of Roprinerol (Requip)?
A previous neurologist had prescribed 24 mg of
Requip
XL
daily. I also take 600 mg of Stalevo and 10 tablets of Carbidopa / Levodopa 25/100 each day. The next neurologist decreased the dosage from 24 mg to 12 mg.

Over the last few months I have eliminated 1mg azilect and 8mg requip.
I continue to take sinemet (100/25) 3x a day plus 3/8 teaspoon mucuna pruriens 3x and 2 requip at night for my restless leg. I am doing well except for a slight occasional tremor, more so when I am stimulated. My question is ( for those of you familiar with mucuna) should I continue to increase my MP

Nightmares
For Long periods I have the most terrible nightmares, sometimes every night for 2-3 weeks, then for a while I have a break. Then it starts again. And the Dreams are very violent and grotesque. Sometimes with just the feeling of evil in my surroundings, sometimes the most bloody killings. I use Requip

Does anyone take Trihexyphenidyl?
I had an appointment with my Consultant yesterday as my usual cocktail of Stalevo,
Requip
XL
and Sinemet CR are not controlling my tremor. After discussing various options I was asked to try one of the above tablets twice a day.

Addendum to the very good recent posts from Avosyl and Tunstall
Very good and informative posts from Avosyl and Tunstall . We all know that every form of medication has side effects and we must be prepared to question our GP if the benefit derived from any medication is outweighted by the side effects. Over the past 3 yrs I have tried Mirapexin, Neupro, Requip

I am curious as to what kind of problems any one has had taking Sinemet?
Requip
XL
12mg a day. I am not sure if it could be my thyroid -- I'm at that lovely age where some days my body is not my own. HORMONES! Would kindly accept responses from the women . Please no snide Man remarks --I'm just not in the mood.

INFO FROM SUPPORT GROUP ON 1-19-13
I'm A new member here Just happened by chance to see there was a support group in my local area So I went. It was run by a recent member on the Board of Directors the RLS Foundation. They also had a doctor who works with RLS Pts so I was pretty excited that I may get some good advice Turns out

Why am I gaining so much weight?
I am careful, for the most part, what I eat, exercise regularly, and lead an active a life as Parkinsons allows me, but still I gain weight. I take Stalevo, Requip and half Sinemet daily. I ask this because it seems that people also taking these meds have the opposite problem - they are losing weight
