Hi rosebud,
I was on Mirapex way back when I was first diagnosed (1999). All i can say the drug did for me was make me sleep and gain weight. I slept for about 18 hours a day before I said enough and quit the stuff. I also put on about 40 lbs. real quick.

I'll live with discomfort, shaking, and whatever else happens before I put up with that again.
