 5  Rest Leg Syndrome When I first started it made me yawn a lot, after a year or so I have no side affects. You do have to get your particular dosage right for it to be affective and you have to take it the same time everyday. F 50 8 years

 4  Parkinsons - right hand tremor Hard to attribute side effects to any one medicine since I am medicated for diabetes, Congestive Heart Disease, Severe Anemia of unknown cause, as well as Parkinsons. I am having swelling and weight gain, and I sleep more than 8 hours each day, but these could be caused by several meds. When it wears off, the tremor returns, so I think it's helping. My Neurologist has suggested I change to Requip or Mirpex. I don't want to do this since both have swelling, weight gain, and sleepiness, as common side effects. I don't need any more of any of those. F 66 3 years

 4  Parkinson's disease this medication I will describe as a double edged golden sword, for the patients, it is not a cure it is a "TREATMENT" - I have been treated for this freakin disease for over 10 years, I have been appreciative for this treatment because the Pharmas own the FDA and they won't allow us "a cure!" but then again - I'm an idealistic thinker, and this world is not an ideal place/utopia? yet it could be a helluvalot kinder... sincerely, lavender a pd patient -stuck in treatment land! it needs to be taken in the smallest doses that help because it is likely to cause us great harm in the long run... so we must - make others aware of this fact!
