I tried Piribedil and Ropinerole with less effect than Pramipxole, so went back to Pramipexole. Unfortunatley it didn't work half as good at the first time, very saddening indeed...

I was wondering if anyone had had any experience on this med? Bipolar's (type II/NOS) reply preferably but all comments welcome! :O)
