Default Mirapex and OCD...I need an answer!!

I know that Mirapex has been linked to headlines such as this: Prescription For an Obsession? Gambling, Sex Manias Called Surprise Risks Of Parkinson's Drugs. I've even read about OCD shopping as a result.

But, has anyone seen any other OCD behavior discussed, or has anyone developed an OCD since PD dx.

I have developed a compulsion that has been come clinically bad, forcing me to seek a therapist to hopefully resolve. I am trying to find a reason for it, but I have not been able to find any literature on the Web about OCD other that what I cited in the first paragraph above. I see my MD doc next month and will bring this up, but in the meantime...

Help Please!!
