Carla,
 
I am new around here -- some weeks since you first posted your question about side effects on Dostinex.  I do hope you are feeling better, without side effects.
 
If you are having side effects, it may be worth asking your doctor about changing the way you take the medicine.  Most people take it twice weekly, so your amount at each dose would be smaller, but you would get the same amount per week.  I take mine on Mondays and Thursdays with dinner. 
 
I have seen many postings from people who had side effects at first, then backed off and reduced their dose for a month or so, then gradually built back up -- and they said it seemed to help.  These are strong medicines that can take some getting used to!
 
Talk to your doctor before changing anything, and make sure you and your doctor agree about exactly how you will take the meds, but this may be an option for you if you're feeling side effects.  Like Minnie has said, a doctor who listens and cares is the most important thing!
