----------------------------------------------------------- From: karmaq9797 Message 1 in Discussion hi, all where to start okay so 10.5 years ago after i gave birth i discovered a high prolactin level, around 90 (i give or take). did some mild meds it did not come down (maybe in the 70-90 range at this point). after 2 years of ignoring it (yes i am very good at that) i went to an endocronologist and had an mri. i was told they saw nothing, but a micro-growth had to be there... level wa no one ever called it by name. i ignored it. 2 years ago i mentioned to my dr that i was still having some symptoms and he did a prolactin level test and it was around 60. suggested another mri... i kind of ignored it... (i know, i know ) i am getting headaches all the time, i keep saying it's allergies (and it could be). my dr does not 'seem' concerned. i came off the pill about 2 years ago, no periods... and sort of stoped seeing my ob, gyn (again i know) so here's the thing i keep wondering/worrying about this thing but the first endo i saw kind of stunk...so i gave up.... at what point to i have to seek help? where do i go? i live in NJ i am always fighting that extra 5-10 lbs (used to be tring to gain) but then again i am 43 now. the headaches suck, but i have allergies get overwhelmed easily, used to be more self assured stressed out alot, but i have a pre-teen i homeschool and am with 24x7 for the last 10.5 years (her dad is in the picture but works all the time and is 'elsewhere' in his head the other times so it is just her and i)... so that could be the stress i can excuse anything, but at what point do i worry.... i know that going on the meds then comming off is bad, surgery is not my thing (allergic to so many things it scares me), and i am tired of worrying that something could happen to me and no one would be there to care for my daughter (and i mean that litterly) so now what? ----------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this e-mail, or change how often it arrives, go to your E-mail Settings. http://groups.msn.com/PituitaryChat/_emailsettings.msnw Need help?
