Gee... do I get a prize for the most? I take 1 and 1/2 of 25/100 every 2- 3 hours including when I wake up at night for an average of 15 pills per day.
Yep I get all that great extra movement like dancing with the stars except that it ain't no tango. Really wish I could cut down. Additionally I take 1.5 mg Mirapex ER twice a day. The dyskinesia is killing me. I also get horrendous foot cramps that bend my foot in two and feel like the bones are breaking. Anyone have a magic bullet for dyskinesia?????
