To Soccertese. The studies are completed but the paper has not yet been published. Perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned them. This is no longer anecdotal information.

Conductor 71, May I please correct one point in your commentary. Although I have cut my meds in half since cycling, I take 4 mg of ReQuip XL, 1 mg. of Azilect for PD and .5 mg. of Clonazepam for my associated REM sleep behavior disorder. I briefly (less than a week) upped my meds to 6 mg. of ReQuip XL in December due to a lot of stress, then decided I wouldn't let the bastards get me down and went back to 4 where I've stayed since.

I am also puzzled by negative commentary. The worst thing that can happen if you cycle (presuming your heart and bones are strong enough to try) is that you'll get more fit even if your symptoms continue. Better than the side effects of more meds I think.
