Anyone Else Find "agonists" Make Things Worse?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Ropinirole - @12mg daily gave me dystonia in right foot.
Opicapone (ongentsys) - @50mg daily gave me EXACTLY the same dystonia (plus crippling insomnia and a urine infection).

Neither seemed to have any effect on the performance or longevity of the l-dopa.

The only thing other than L-dopa that's worked for me is Rasagiline (Azilect). Is it just me?
