I've been reading a lot of press this AM about the questioned compulsive effects of Mirapex. I never used to have any compulsions; instead, I could "sqeeze a nickel so tight you could hear the buffalo ****."
Several months after starting Mirapex, I was casually introduced to gambling while on a business trip to Vegas. Since then, it's been continuous and as much as I've tried to stop this compulsion, it's been with me, ruining our lives.
Even if the Mirapex is the 'culprit' and I have something to blame our indebtedness (hubby is aware of the problem, but not to possible ties to Mirapex) on-is there a substitute for Mirapex that I can suggest to my doc that you're aware of.
Other than hubby, I've never mentioned to ANYONE about this compulsion; this is SO MUCH NOT ME! Please don't judge; I need support and suggestions now.
