When I began having unusual movements (dyskinesua) on carb/levidopa, my doc put me on ropinerole (Requip) instead, but I don't seem to feel any better on it. But i'm on only on 1 mg three times per day. Is anybody else on this drug? Does it work for you?
I love it on 4 mg 3 times a day
My neurologist says I have DIP. Does anybody else out there have the same diagnosis? I would like to hook up with fellow DIPper to compare medications that might be suspect. My doctor suspects Vraylar, Lithium, and Clonazepam the latter of which I'm weaning off now.
