I find all the posts and information on this forum interesting but must conclude that what works well for one individual may or may not work well for another. Most of what I read on this post are negative regarding Mirapex and Neupro yet, my mother, diagnosed with PD for 17 years now, has taken Mirapex since the very beginning with no adverse side effects. Recently she added the NeuPro patch to her mix and it has improved her mobility. Without it, she wouldn't be able to get out of bed on her own. On the other hand, she has tried tritrating onto Sinemet three different times now. All three times made her extremely sick and she finally threw them in the trash can.

So go with what works best for Doreen!
