Endocrinologist Update

The long test and the wait were worth it!  They found something wrong with me!  While it may seem like something wrong is a bad thing, just knowing what is abnormal is a start.  Now we can treat it!  Yay!  

One of the issues that I have been going through is with my pituitary gland.  My pituitary is producing higher than normal levels of prolactin, which completely messes with women's reproductive cycles.  (and no, my boobs are not producing milk...I know some of you are wondering...prolactin...boobs...milk)  The doctor confirmed that my levels did not indicate that we were looking at a tumor, but that my response to the prolactin stim test showed a problem with the higher than normal response from my pituitary.

I also had my thyroid tested again today and will potentially be on thyroid medication within a couple of weeks.  My levels have been consistently slightly above normal and my symptoms have not gone away.
