Well I just took the first pill 3 hours before I go to bed.

I have a number of initials that this medication has to mesh with.

I am so praying to God that this works. I try to give my worries to Him but I am so tired.

I have to go out for a couple of those hours. Is their anything I should be looking for? I will not be driving.

" I don't take Requip - I take Mirapex - so I can't really say. I don't feel any different on Mirapex at all. How is it working for you so far? I hope you are getting some sleep! "

" Well, Hi, Thanks for asking.

I am feeling so much more calmness. I have gone up on the next mg .05. I still have the tightening going on in my muscles that go into action to stip the movement. We are taling decades of this reaction, so i don't think this is going to happen overnight. But I feel really grateful and blessed to have something that is helping. I could cry it means so much.

I am so glad I have a support that understands and hope all you pep's that read this have a good day.

Thanks again Shadeseeker. By the way. What is the difference between the two? Do you know why you were given Mirapex as opposed to requi? My Dr wrote the both meds down but without my choice he ended up ordering requip.

It is something I can look into also but I have school homework to do. I am trying to get a certificate in alcohol and drug counseling.

Talk to ya later. "
