I cannot speak for all patients by any means......but the switch to Mirapex as > a drug with less side effects for me was a positive move. -- Rita, your point is well taken, and very likely Mirapex is better. But we've seen comment by others here, who had to give up on Mirapex. It's a reminder that individual tolerance of PD drugs is extremely variable and "one's meat may be another's poison". So the more options kept available, the better. Cheers, Joe J. R. Bruman (818) 789-3694 3527 Cody Road Sherman Oaks, CA 91403-5013
