Not Working
I am now on bromocriptine. It also is not working! My breasts are swollen and becoming larger and larger. I also have discharge from both of my breasts. I have gained a considerable amount of weight and it seems so hard to lose weight. I work out very hard and eat healthy and nothing works. I am always very bloated. I am depressed and very short fused. I experience dizziness dysequilibrium nausea lightheadness from bromocriptine.
