I'm sorry you have a pituitary tumor. I assume it is a prolactinoma since they are starting you off on dostinex. Have they checked all your other hormones? I have been taking dostinex for 4 years. It brought my prolactin level down from 1200 to the 50s/60s and shrank my tumor from 2.1 to 1.5 cm. I tolerate it very well, but sometimes it takes awhile to get used to. At first I experienced depression fatigue headachesand weight loss, but my I quicky adjusted. I hope it works well for you. Good luck.
Carla,
I have never experienced a strange taste or sensation from the contrast dye that they give during the MRIs that I have had. The dye is injected into the vein. The only sensation I get is a headache, possibly from the noise in the MRI chamber. Best of luck, and I hope you get good results.
