Default dyskinesias: with or without agonist?

I have been a bit surprised to hear that many with dyskinesias believe it to be caused by the combined use of l-dopa and an agonist. Does anyone here have dyskinesias and is NOT taking an agonist?

It's very interesting that Rick quit Requip and his dyskinesias went away...has anyone else quit an agonist and had dyskinesia go away? I also noted Paula's comment, today I think, that comtan gave her dyskinesias and that when she quit taking it, they went away, or at least that's what I got from the post.

Our neuro is really pushing comtan...I hate to add another drug unless we could quit the mirapex at the same time, that might actually make it worth trying.
