For Katekite re: prolactinoma

Posted by Kar on June 20, 2002, at 14:04:53

Hey Kate-
They found it about 4 yrs ago. No other symptoms (except maybe decreased sex drive?). It was only like 6 mm then. They decided not to treat it and checked the levels from time to time. MRI 2 years later showed that the boundaries were blurred and it was almost gone. About 2 months ago I had another MRI b/c the prolactin levels had gone up; again, no other symptoms. MRI showed that it had grown back. Prolactin level is only like 80-something. They weren't gonna put me on the Bromo but i pushed for it b/c I heard it can increase sex drive (no luck in that dept. yet). Been on it 2 weeks and will have a level done soon...I heard that they often grow back when you stop taking the Bromo...I don't know...

Good luck with your stuff...
Karen
