 I would appreciate any help.

I have tried bromocryptine (Parlodel) in the distant past.  It works, but is
(Like the newer Permax) an ergot.  That means it constricts arteries.-not
often whatcha wanna do for us geezers.  Suggest the relatively new drug
Mirapex to your neuro.  It has the potency to be useful in advanced disease,
and does not act like an ergot.
