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.? ?
