Dyskinesia from pramipexole
She then switched me to ropinirole (
Requip
), which I have been taking for 3 nights. My question is this: How long can I expect the tics to stay around? Won't the ropinirole cause tics too, since it is a similar drug to pramipexole? Thanks!

Feel like a zombie!!
I take
Requip
and have been put on Pregabalin for nerve pain. I am tired all the time and when I asked my GP if I could come off the Pregabalin he suggested Amitriptyline!! What hope do I have when my GP doesn’t know what to suggest? Thanks for all the advice on HAYFEVER.

Sleep help
What do you think, would low dose
Requip
help with sleep and not be too encumbered with side effects? My other question is can RLS be seasonal? It seems to rear it's head in the Spring, more than any other time of the year. And, which DA would you recommend? Thanks.

RLS Relief
I was on
requip
, that made it worse, which I didn't think was possible. I've tried the Tens Unit, which only works while it's on. You can only use that for 2 minutes at a time and it turns off. I have a rough pillow I put between my feet and legs that I rub on.

Need Advice RLS!
Then i couldn't take the withdrawls from the anti-depressant or the
requip
. I put myself bak on 20mg of the antidepressant which is down from 40mg. I went back on the
requip
attempting to lower my dose with no success.

Need RLS Advice
I am on
Requip
and Zanaflex. Most times it helps but not for long. I try to take it before I go to bed, so I can get some relief and sleep. Recently it's gotten much worse. It not only affects my legs but my arms spasm too.

Going off requip (ropinirole)
My doctor has been reducing
Requip
today was the first day I went on only 4 mg. Tonight I can’t sleep due to what I think is dyskinesia. It’s mainly in my left leg But it is troublesome enough to be keeping me up awake at three in the morning.

Tried most everything
Now I take Ropinirole (
Requip
),Carbidopa levodopa, and clonazepam. I suffer beyond belief but have found some relief in the Relaxis pad. I have had it for some time but was never consistent in using it.

Some questions for everyone.
When i add Ropinirole (
Requip
) i have very little or no problems at all. I have been on Ropinirole for the last 5 years and i quit taking it about 5 weeks ago. Now the question. Did stop taken the Ropinirole cause the problems when the C/L stops working?

Effect of Carbidopa/Levodopa on organs of the body
He take a 8 mg
requip
before he goes to bed so he can get out of bed at night. He had tried other medications to supplement and they have all made him have very disturbing dreams so we had stayed with what works for him.

Parkinsons or MSA?
I started on Azilect and then
Requip
. I did well on both of them but here we are two years down the line and I started Levadopa in November.

Can I have your opinion please?
I was resigned to this and did well on Azilect and then
Requip
both of which helped my symptoms very much until November last year. I asked to be put on Levadopa as I play in a band and wanted to remain as a player.

Augmentation? I'm guessing yes.
My GP started me on
Requip
1mg on 1/10/11. Worked for some months and then dosage was increased to
Requip
XL 2mg on 9/2/11. Worked very well for a couple of years and then worsening daytime and nightime RLS. Went to a Neurologist and he took me off
Requip
and started me on Neupro 2mg on 4/1/14.

Losing my mind!
Requip
was not working after about 6 years. Just started Sinemet 2 days ago and it is doing nothing. I twitch about 20 out of 24 hours. I have been getting , at most, 2 hours of sleep with occasional 5-10 minute dozes. I don't know what to do!
