Hi, it's me, and yes I quickly discontinued the Trivistal. First, it made me sleepy, which I don't like. I do better on more stimulating meds, and don't feel well when not "up", but that's me.
But OH the dreams I had on Trivistal! I slept and slept and the dreams were very vivid - and good! Not scary like when I quit smoking and used a nicotine patch.
Also, I felt it made me crave more carbs (everything tasted so good!). I think this is a common side effect with dopamine agonists. My boss takes Requip for RLS and he's gained quite a bit since starting it, despite working out like a madman.
As far as mood, I did not notice any help; so I do have a supply of Trivistal leftover, but am not planing on ever using it again. If that tells you anything. The Ixel worked much better for mood than Trivistal.
