Mama will be up soon and she’ll have the stove screaming. That girl can go through the wood but I have to say it’s nice to come in after being out in single digits to a warm house, my easy chair and a cup of coffee!!!
Mornin brufab!!! How’s our miss Hannah doing?Oh man MM. you and the wife and the doggy are in our prayers.
She's ok we have new prescriptions to try out to help hold her fluids. Alot is pointing to pituitary issues since her **** milk hormones (prolactin) are high plus alot of other hormones/chemicals. Looks like the pituitary is the controller of all things hormone/chemical related. She could be infertile as well with the elevated prolactin. https://www.ohsu.edu/brain-institute/understanding-pituitary-disorders. This article is pretty much spot on with most of her issues.
Well that’s a step in the right direction. Once they nail it down, things will start changing for the better I imagine. Will cross our fingers on the infertility. If it’s an issue we’d be glad to chat with you guys about fostering if that is something you would be interested in.
Two thumbs up on both friends!
sorry if my sarcastic remarks don't quite filter through on the internet. Disparaging you was not the intent. I have modded the post to reflect that I hope.
My wife had the same thing. Your wife has a Pituitary tumor. The elevated prolactin is from a hormone secreting tumor which may or may not be able to be seen on the MRI. Sometimes they are very very small but the size isn't relative to the problems they cause its about how much hormone the tumor secretes. A really large one may not secrete much at all vs a small one that can secrete a ton. They diagnose it chemically not necessarily through image because of the trouble seeing it. They may start chemical therapy to shrink it there's a couple drugs they use they put my wife on bromocriptine to shrink its size thereby reducing the hormone it secretes. Or there is surgical options too. Her fertility should return once the tumor is dealt with. If she needs surgery or you need any help with good endo give me a call ill be glad to help with all the info we have gotten through that journey. Have a good morning.
No hard feelings sir. I hope you have a good start to your day. And everything is well with you and your family.
So sorry to hear this Mike.
It's never easy for sure. Linus could never have had a better dad and mom.GM Folks, the endocrinologist needs to make sure that the elevated prolactin is not a false positive. My wife had elevated prolactin for years and went thru all kinds of tests. It turned out to be an enzyme which triggers that test. He told her to avoid getting that test in the future. Hope the infertility gets resolved and you folks get the blessing you want.
Welcome aboard friend!!!
My wife has this on the wall in our dining room.
Thosr are some good looking stacks you have there, sir!
Our hopes and prayers are with you and her to resolve this issue in a favorable manner.
Glad he just surrendered, so many times those situations end much worse, as it is he probably will loose all gun rights. Hope whatever situation is gets worked out.
