Dear All, I am new to this list. my name is Diane. my Mother was diagnosed with PD about 18 months ago. She was given Sinnemet which she takes 4 times a day. Recently her actual mobility was only lasting for abot 9 hours a day so her neurologist has increased the Sinnemet to 5 a day. She is very depressed and so she has also been prescibed Prozac which she is to start taking in the next week or so. Her neurologist has also been speaking about a new drug which he may put her on called Ropinerole (or Requip) Does anyone know anything about this drug. My mum and Dad are moving home next week and she is finding the move totally distressing. I wish I could do more to help her. We live in England by the way. Diane
