I can't give you medical advice, of course. Primarily because I don't want a lawyer after all my money. I would hate to waste his time

But I will speculate about what I might do in a similar situation. First off, I would reduce my stress in every way I could short of medication. If I couldn't leave the job, maybe I could change it? And I would start backing away from the Mirapex even if it meant Sinemet. Too many dark rumblings about it.

But I think that I would try the mucuna first. I wouldn't fool with the Zandopa and I wouldn't try the various pill forms, I would just work with the plain powder and see what it could do for me. If I needed more, then I might try adding in the ginseng, and if that didn't do it, then I'd look at low doses of Sinemet with it.

I'd be tempted to get into something new and physical, too. Break the mold that had built up around me and see what came out.
