Would you kindly describe your dosage amount, schedule and whether you have found it best to take Mirapex before eating, or with food?? Your good fortune in switching from cabergoline to Mirapex encourages all of us Mirapex-ers! Hoping you might improve enough to return to your lovely piano playing. Your poem was so beautiful, even if you had to share your pain. Thank you so much. I wonder if you are underdosing, or if your PD is too advanced to respond? Your poem speaks of pain and shuffling which I experience at wear-off of doses only. Rita, if you post your med. schedule, maybe we'll have some helpful ideas for you. Yours, IVAN (47/10) P.S. Still playing--working on Clair de Lune and Moonlight Sonata.......and grateful to be able to use my fingers and arms adequately.
