My Dear Friends,

I finally was able to see the neurologist this morning and she saw how bad off I am. As such, she tweaked my medications by lowering the Mirapex and increasing the carbidopa/levodopa. My carbidopa/levodopa was .5 and she increased it to 1.5. She then reduced my Mirapex.

My question is how long it takes to kick into my system. I was under the impression that it's immediate or, at the very worst, an hour??? I was
given my meds around 9:00 tonight and, at feel almost worse than when I took my medications.

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!
