Re: Question to Mirapex users

[Rob Ramsey <rbnhd13@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My wife to Mirapex after she was first diagnosed and it was a disaster.  She
was very sleepy but what was worse is that she became very depressed.
Obviously this is just her experience.  She is now on Requip which has
worked wonderfully.  Best wishes.  Rob
