Re: Rotigitine patches

[Les Combs <lescombs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I used neupro patches, and I looked like a quilt.  I apparently had an
allergy to patches and/or adhesives though I have no other known allergies.
I went off them with the doctor's permission, and I actually feel better.
They did not extend the on time of my meds.  And when I went back to Mirapex
the on time was not reduced.
