I was diagnosed about 3 years ago. For the first 2 years my weight stayed static, Then my Dr added Mirapex (Pramipexole) to my meds. I began to gain weight rapidly (+25 lbs). I am very active (golf & gym). In addition, I fell asleep every time I sat down and began to talk in my sleep. I Quit taking it when I dreamed one night that I was fighting someone and nearly punched my wife. Since I stopped.I have lost 7 lbs and do not fall asleep or have dreams that cause me to act. Needless to say, med side effects can be bad.

Yes, I have noticed that I have gained a lot of weight especially around the waist.

I've been a type one diabetic for nearly twenty years, the hospital has put me on an Insulin Pump, which delivers insulin 24/ 7.
Since I've been on the pump (8/10 weeks) I put myself on a low carb diet, and I've lost 11kgs !!!!!
Approx 24lbs.
Nothing whatsoever to do with the question, just showing off!!!!!!

I definitely have the same problem, but the doctor says it's because I have gastroparesis. I also retain an increasing amount of fluid which means the scales show me between 10 to 25 lbs more than what I weigh when I can get my fluid down. I don't have an answer to what helps.

I had trouble with weight loss from dyskinesia. After DBS it improved
