Alison,
My mom is now on the Stelevo and Mirapex now.  I am under the impression
that Stelevo is just the Comtan and Sinemet together.  Her "on" times are
becoming less frequent and the stelevo isn't working like it first did.  She
has terrible Restless Legs Syndrome and sometimes that is her biggest
concern so her Dr.put her on Mirapex. She also has anxiety attacks so she
takes Ativan which she probably is addicted to, but at her age who cares if
it makes her feel any relief at all.

I can't say how much the change in meds helps, but she can't walk at all
without them.

Alison (luv that name)
