Hi everyone,
I have parkinson's disease (7years) and recently had DBS surgery. Am 59 and having some trouble with fatigue and mood swings as I try to drop down on medication dosages. Mirapex from 1.5 mg 3 x a day to half that and Levadopa-carbadopa 4 x a day 100/25 - 1 in the early morning and 1/2 3 x in the rest of the day. Have any of you had experience with this? THanks.

Hello Maryelisabeth and welcome from me as well.

We have quite an active Parkinsons Forum here on NeuroTalk, and I know the people there will make you welcome.

I'm so pleased that you found us. It's very nice to meet you.
