Default Study.

When I visited my MDS in December at Univ. of Pa. hospital in Philadelphia, one of the drug companies was conducting a survey of the affect of agonists on PD patients. I agreed to participate, and the questions were about gambling, sex, drinking, binge eating, binge shopping.
I think the tendency has to be there, and the dosis of Mirapex or Requip has to be relatively high for obsessive behavior to occur. I didn't qualify for further study because after five years of taking Requip I have never experienced any of the OBs on the list.
However, obsessive computer dependence was not listed.........
