Hi and thanks for the query,
Coughing blood and parkinsons disease really do not have anything in common. Evaluation for lung disease, pulmonary TB or lung cancer could help in evaluating lung function. L dopamine and other Beta Adrenergic drugs are mainly used for parkinson s disease. patients react and respond differently to these drugs. The opinion of your doctor to monitor treatment remains very important.
