Hi!
I hope Mirapex helps you.
I want to warn you that it can have some GI effects at first. Many experience nausea, vomiting, heartburn. I was told about 50% of people vomit.
I had some upper GI upset. I was able to get through it by using; simethicone (Gas-X) and a carbonated ginger ale. (My preference is Reed's Ginger Brew. It is very strong with ginger.I did not come close to vomiting.)
I had suggested to my pdoc that she consider using an anti-nausea med, just initially. She had not thought of that. Of course, it is best if you can get by without another med.
Once I had gotten through the first week, all GI symptoms disappeared for me.
I hope your initial introduction to Mirapex occurs is pleasant.
I will be interested in how you do with this treatment.
Please do PM me anytime.
