Brief Answer:
Increase dosage of mediations

Detailed Answer:
Hi again
thank you for coming back
I understand that you were diagnosed and first symptoms were legs shaking
There is remedy but unfortunately time is needed as Parkinson treatment must be used right and slowly change dosage
If you are taking mirapex at daily dosage of 2 g you are ok so mirapex don't need further changes
Instead recovery is expected from efficacy of sine met so once again as I asked first please tell me how many time a day you take it?
If you are taking it four times a day before meals then other class of medicaments need to be added
If you take sine met three time a day it should be increased and should be taken four times, each 6 hours
If you can upload a video of yours shaking legs that will definitely help me in better understanding
Hope I have been of help
Hopping that you will be able to upload a video
Wish you good health and fast recovery
Regards
