Did you substitute ropinirole with something else?> Someone please correct me if I am wrong but haven't most countries recalled Pergolide because it causes heart valve problems, or was that another DA?
Well, i did a search and i found that you are right:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PergolideSo, if i can't find pergolide anymore, bromocriptine or Agnus Castus extract would be the best pick for me?
