Smile (I'm new on Mirapex)Anyone see blinking lights in patterns at night,Awake w/eyes open

Hi! I'm new, and just learning how to navigate this site. I was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's. Thanks for your help. This seems like a very supportive community. I take 1 mg. of Mirapex 3 x a day. At this dose I began seeing gridlike, and varied patterns of white flashing lights, upon waking at night. My eyes are open, I'm awake. They may or may not fade as I watch them. Upon waking again they are usually back. Sometimes this goes on all night. The doctors feel it is a side effect, I agree but wonder if anyone has an experience like it? Also I have such trouble with nausea, am I right in thinking I will eventually tolerate this medication? I have been on this dose for over a month and a half.
