Sorry to hear you're not feeling well with Requip....but I hope you enjoy your birthday none-the-less. I started on Requip at the end of October and appreciate how you're feeling. My neuro and I are trying to get med doses to a more desirable state and, as you know, it's not an easy task. Trial and error. I'm now taking Prolopa (2-100-25) and Requip (1- 2mgs) in the morning. Then 1 Prolopa and 1 Requip at noon and supper time. Dyskinesia and tight throat seem to be my main side effects. I'm to keep a diary for the next month and then see him again. I've been trying to keep up with your postings on your Requip life, but may have missed some. I do hope you're feeling better soon. Best regards and Happy Birthday, Shari
