    • Close Prolactinoma

      Diagnosed in 2003 with a prolactin secreting pituitary macroadenoma.I would love to connect with anyone suffering personality and coping issues but especially Prolactinoma patients. I feel that I don't handle stress very well and the year before my diagnosis and treatment was brutal.I think this tumour cost me my job of 10 years.

      Treatments

      Dostinex Working / Worked
      The Cabergoline is working but I am worried about the recent discovery that it may cause heart valve problems.I am due for cardiac imaging in September.
