Hi Robert: I am also on Mirapex-just increased it from 1mg 3 times a day to 11/2 mg 3 times a day. I have had bad muscle pains in the back that have got worse since I started with Mirapex 5 months ago. Is it the Mirapex that cause muscle pain and spasms? Is Tasmar better? If anyone has the same experience that Mirapex is supposedly the cause) I would appreciate hearing from you.
