Prolactinoma

Published

Kind of a weird post, but I thought ya'll might have unique insight. I am a 3rd year BSN student, so I often come to this site for advice, but this time I need advice as a patient. I have just been dx with a prolactinoma (functional, prolactin level 163).

I am looking for suggestions on a great endocrinologist who specializes in these, in the Midwest if possible (I'm in Kansas). I have been doing a ton of research but I am having trouble deciding who to go with. I want to look into all the options- medication and surgery. Whatever gives me the best chance to like as normal a life as possible!

What you are asking is actually against the terms of service. Have you asked your primary care provider for referrals?
