Does Mirapex Help Fibromyalgia?

Updated

Has anyone used Mirapex for fibromyalgia relief? If so, did it help? Anyone know a doc that treats fibromyalgia in the Indiana area?

i used sifrol 4.5 extended release, (i am in australia) for fibromyalgia. it gave me serve side affects of virtgo, vomting ending with a migraine over a 15hr or so period. i went to emergency in my town and got anti nuasa injection and a morphine shot to get rid of my migraine. since it has disipated however i had improvement in my legs. i have spoken to my rhemy since and asked to drop the doesage by half and then i will half it again and maybe build it up as time progresses. i am hopefull for anything at this piont, so i will even though i am scared to get that sick again give it 1 more chance. i also feel sorry for you in america at the price you have to pay for ur meds!! it only costs $30 herefor 30 tablets. i also would love to hear back from anyone with any success with this drug with fibro. thanks for listening!!

Any doctor can treat Fibromyalgia, but for the best pain management, you will likely need to see a specialist. Your general practitioner should be able to refer you to someone.

This condition is most frequently known to cause pain, and head fog, and the preferred treatments include medications, and lifestyle changes, since there is no cure for it.

Mirapex is most commonly used to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's Disease, and RLS. According to FA reports, its typical side effects may include falling asleep, unexpectedly, during the daytime, dizziness, hallucinations, headache, and nausea.

What has your current doctor prescribed?
