Guest guest Posted April 17, 1999 Report Share Posted April 17, 1999 Hi Marleen and All, Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night, and my nose is so stuffed up I can hardly breath. (side effect of Mirapex?) I have discovered that a herbal tea called Gypsy Cold Remedy really does help - maybe just the steam, but it does the job. Of course the side effect of that is having to take a potty break soon afterward, which gets me up again, so sometimes I just stay up until that is accomplished! BTW, my husband has been on my case to switch from Mirapex to Neurotin, because a doctor friend told him that Mirapex is hard on the liver. I had tried Neuortin way back (actually the first thing I ever took for rls), and it worked, sort of, for a while, then stopped. Not sure what to do at this point. Legs have been pretty good lately, and I hate to rock the boat, but liver damage is not an attractive option! Any suggestions? ne, 59, Lawrenceville, NJ --- " M.F.Schipper " M.F.Schipper@...> wrote: > > > Hi Folks, I have a question for you.
