It makes sense of something that used to happen to me when I was on Mirapex. I used to get feelings in my chest kind of like someone was squeezing my heart. Palpitations? Arrhythmia? I don't know, and the cardiologist couldn't find anything worrisome. Since I've been off the stuff, I can't remember having any more. Hmmm.... Makes you wonder if there's yet something else that perhaps hasn't been disclosed yet. -----Original Message----- From: Mary Ann Ryan Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2013 9:18 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Court Blames Sex Addiction on Meds A short blurb in The Parkinson's Disease Foundation News Review reported that the FDA is cautioning that Mirapex may cause a heart failure risk.
