Yesterday, I had an appt with an endocrinolgist. I thought I was going due to low hormone levels but apparently it was for high prolactin levels. I have never had or can have kids so I should not be producing milk. He did some testing in his office and today I had to go for blood work today and I have to have an MRI on my pituitary gland. He is checking for "nodules". He asked me a tonne of questions and I responded. I looked up some things last night and many things I have experienced, could have to do with my pituitary gland. Hoping to get to the bottom of this and that nothing is serious.

BELOW GOAL Happily maintaining 4.5 years out!! Life is GREAT!!! Had my plastic surgery!

it is amazing those little glands can drive the whole body in so many ways! Hope you get to a resolution with it soon!

As a sidebar, I found most of the process preRNY a journey of discovery, had a number of health issues that made sense once found but had not had them really investigated before the whole bariatric inquiries. For me it was good to know these other issues existed.
