Lorraine, I have been using it for over a month now and it didn't do a thing for me even at 6 mg. Since I had no side effects and also no relief from it at all and was worse than ever, my neuro has increased it to 10 which is not usually done. I am taking more Sinemet than I was when I was taking MIrapex but I was getting edema after being on 8 mirapex daily for so long. With Neupro, I am also off much more dramatically altho the new dosage may be a little better...I am going to give it a month or so on this dose to see what happens - but I am concerned that my feet are swelling again. No easy answers.... Nina "Circumstances determine our lives, but we shape our lives by what we make of our circumstances."
