To Momsbroken1: 
Dostinex prescribing information describes once-per-week or twice-per-week schedules -- both have been studied.  Two is more common, but that seems to be recommended as a way minimize side effects for people who need larger doses. 
 
Unlike bromo, which is processed pretty quickly, Dostinex lasts much longer in the body.  Once per week is a good way to lower the amount you take every week, without trying to chop half of one of those teensy-weensy pills into two even smaller crumbs to take twice per week!
 
To Soweto2000:
Wow, you have a lot going on!  The one thing I want to suggest is that you  talk with your doctors about birth control options. 
 
When prolactin levels come down closer to normal, periods come back and so can fertility (it doesn't always, but if things are working right, it should). 
 
Since it sounds like your prolactin levels are up and down and your periods are back, it is important to let your doctors know whether you want to become pregnant or avoid it, and talk with them about what options they feel are best for you right now.  It might be hard for you to tell whether you are fertile or not, so if you do not want to get pregnant, be sure you have a plan that you and your doctors are comfortable with. 
 
Good luck!
