Dopamine agonists are very interesting drugs but personally I'd be extremely wary of using them long term unless I suffered from Parkinsons or similar disorder. I've followed many guys over the past 5 years who have literally gone through hell once they've decided/needed to come off the drugs. DAWS (dopamine agonist withdrawal syndrome) is no joke. Some never fully recover. If it were me, I'd use this class of drug as a very last resort.
I know this is off topic but I was diagnosed with attention deficit disorder ADD/ADHD when I was a kid wich is associated with lower dopamine levels. As I grew older I was able to control it more but lately its been a lot more difficult and harder to learn/retain knowledge I think the CRPS might have something to do with it as it can affect your short term memory. I cant help but wonder it would help considering: In the
brain, dopamine functions as a
neurotransmitter—a chemical released by
neurons (nerve cells) to send signals to other nerve cells. The brain includes several distinct
dopamine pathways, one of which plays a major role in
reward-motivated behavior. Most types of reward increase the level of dopamine in the brain, and most
addictive drugs increase dopamine neuronal activity. Other brain dopamine pathways are involved in
motor control and in controlling the release of various hormones. These pathways and
cell groups form a dopamine system which is
neuromodulatory.
Outside the
central nervous system, dopamine functions in several parts of the
peripheral nervous system as a local
chemical messenger. In blood vessels, it inhibits
norepinephrine release and acts as a
vasodilator (at normal concentrations); in the kidneys, it increases sodium excretion and urine output; in the
pancreas, it reduces insulin production; in the digestive system, it reduces
gastrointestinal motility and protects
intestinal mucosa; and in the immune system, it reduces the activity of
lymphocytes. With the exception of the blood vessels, dopamine in each of these peripheral systems is synthesized locally and exerts its effects near the cells that release it.

my concern would be my A1C test was 4.9 and dopamine in the
pancreas reduces insulin production. I am in the process of working with a place to try nandrolone for my CRPS if progesterone issues happen I might try it if it is an option.
