stopping dopamine agonist to start taking sinamet, how long to give in between?
I have been taking Pramipexole for a week and a half, before that
Requip
xl, 6mg for a year. I have to completely stop taking Prami for a week before starting Sinamet. This is going to be hard as its technically going "cold turkey".

Are Sinemet and Madopar the same thing - L-Dopa ?
Currently taking
Requip
XL but they're starting to wear off . Have tried Sinemet but they made my tremour worse !! Doc has recommended trying Madopar (dissolvable ones) but a low dose once a day to start with as i struggle with mornings (don't we all?)

I take 6mg of Requip XL daily
I take 6mg of
Requip
XL daily. I usually take mine in the morning but have noticed that other people take it at night. I don't recall being told when to take this, but that doesn't mean anything. I don't recall much of anything! Does anyone find it works better if taken at a certain time?

I am 39 and taking 2 to 4 Madopar tablets a day do you think I will end up with dyskinesia?
On
Requip
XL I was having sleep problems, eating in the night and sewing a lot.

A wee joke to cheer us up on the Requip night shift
One afternoon a Scotsman was riding in his limousine when he saw two men along the roadside eating grass. Disturbed, he ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate. He asked one man, "Why are you eating grass?" "We don't have any money for food," the poor man replied. "We have to eat

Help with walking "issues"
I recently went from 20-22mg
Requip
XL - am not on anything else.Or could it be due to having a month off running (and exercise in general) nothing else has changed - just sometimes feel my right foot is "stuck" to the floor and/or someone has tied my shoelaces together - haven''t managed to fall over

Requip side effects?
The Dr. added
Requip
to perhaps bring my ability to write back. It's in addition to Sinemet (2 tab 3x day).
