Default mirapex.....

Hi
I have been on Mirapex for 4 years, with a dosage of 3mg total, 1mg three times a day and it was a great help. I did have hair loss, insomnia, but not to the extent of concern. Of late, I think the side effects of Mirapex are more stronger and I see changes in myself that are of concern.. The only new thing added to my Meds is Azilect. That might have changed my previous need for mirapex. So, I tried titrating it down to 2 doses or 0.5mg three times day. Its not working. I feel like I am addicted to Mirapex.

Has anyone noticed a similar pattern in mirapex usage?

Rosebud and Fiona, did you just go off mirapex or replaced it with requip or some other agonist?
Thanks
Girija
