I have been on Ropinerole /re-quip for some 5 years (I think) In any event, I have done reeasonably well on re-quip. When I reached 65 I lost my Blue Cross medical insurance and I am attempting to obtain my medicine through the Veteran's Administration program. Unfortunately, I have discovered that while Sinemet is available from the VA -- Re-Quip is not. Has anyone else run into this problem? Do you have any ideas? Surely I am not the only veteran with Park. I hate to start with something else at this late date -- -- in light of my progress with Re-Quip. I don't know of another agonist that would be as good for me. But $250 + per month is going to be tough to handle. I would appreciate any advice.
