RLS and progesterone birth control... trigger?
I was doing really well on 10/325 hydrocodone every night plus 1/2 pill of my .25 mg
Requip
to keep the RLS at bay. But lately, I have had a series of really bad nights (and then DAYS) when I can’t seem to get relief from my regular meds.

Surviving RLS when on bedrest
My neurologist just switched me from Mirapex to
Requip
with klonopin at night. I’m still miserable. Now he’s adding Sinemet. I feel like a drug store. It’s becoming a full time job to manage medication. Also worried about dependency.

My doctor put me on
requip
which caused me to have almost a narcolepsy effect. Sudden falling asleep, causing a car accident while driving. My doctor never did figure out what was wrong with me. I stopped taking zocor with total relief from all symptoms.

How much CL is too much?
Whilst I'm waiting to titrate up to the 14mg of
Requip
which should make a difference, I feel quite down about being told that 600mg is the upper limit and wonder if the community would concur or challenge this

Sleep is my best medicine. Can you relate?
I was diagnosed with PD in 2016 and have tried
Requip
and c/l with little relief. In the evening I might suffer from any combo of brain fog, balance issues, speech challenges, or slowness.

Mucuna Dyskinesia Shocker!
Started on Azilect and then added 8mg of
Requip
and I still take these in the morning. 3 years ago added 300mg of Madopar per day but only stayed on this for a couple of months. I'd read about dyskinesia and also heard that Mucuna offered the same relief but didn't cause dyskinesia.

Medical marijuana
I weaned myself off
requip
in January, my symptoms weren’t that bad for awhile but lately they’re coming back and getting worse. I am so scared to go back on any type of medication that could cause augmentation. Has anyone here tried marijuana? Legal or illegal? I’m desperate

New symptom itching
My usual
requip
dose of .5 seems to have made the itching go away or maybe it’s a coincidence. Should I be concerned?

Alternating Requip and Mirapex?
I, too, had problems with
requip
augmenting. Has anyone tried switching to Mirapex when
Requip
starts augmenting and then back again when Mirapex starts augmenting?

Looking for people who have phased out Carbidopa/Levodopa in favor of an all-mucuna program
I was diagnosed in 2006, and have progressed through
Requip
, Sinemet, and Rytary, recently exploring mucuna in place of Rytary.

Requip and natural treatments
Has anyone used
Requip
? I am just starting to try Parkinson’s meds. I got a huge headache and was extremely tired. Also I do not want to lose more weight as I have already lost 12 pounds. Does anyone recommend any natural treatments? Does anyone connect Parkinson’s with lymee?

Seeking experiences with Requip XL and/or Rytary
My doctor started me on
Requip
XL 4 mg once per day to supplement Rytary. At the highest dose of Rytary, I have great motor control but enormous speech problems. Hence,
Requip
XL.

Anomaly
Hi guys, After being in mild augmentation and having been on
Requip
(0.25mg) for just over a month, I started getting symptoms early morning, every afternoon and atleast 3 breakthroughs at night. This is when I also took tramadol 20mg, Pregab 150mg.

Any advice gladly welcome
I was then prescribed
Requip
and this was life changing. I got 4 years of complete relief. I really thought I was never going to have to think about it again. Then augmentation kicked in and it had to be stopped. I tried juicing, fasting, extra vitamins, less vitamins, Iron, Vit B12.
