I’ll make this snappy since only like, 2.5 people still read this thing.
Prolactin levels are WAAAAAAAY down now. That’s good! I find out in March if the actual tumor is shrinking and I get all my bloodwork redone too.
Birth control is being dumb. I have a lot of “breakthrough bleeding,” which basically means I get light cycles but they last mother fucking WEEKS. In December it lasted 26 fucking days. Sigh. At least the pain is fairly minimal. Still, I have better things to do with my life.
I’ve had tons of migraines lately. Turns out my idiot ophthalmologist was supposed to tell me I needed glasses but never did. It was only at another appointment that someone mentioned it. Geez people! So I recently went to an optometrist for the first time and it turns out I’m far sighted and have astigmatisms in both eyes. So hopefully I get squared away when my glasses arrive and my headaches will finally stop!
New shit. I’ve had this weird rando cough that’s lasted for about 6 weeks and counting. I also get winded really easy and have a hard time breathing sometimes. I never got sick with a cold or anything so I don’t know what this is from. I’m a little worried because my cabergoline can cause lung damage, but only on rare occasions. I’m sure it’s probably something else, but being the paranoid hypochondriac I am, I’ve decided I have pulmonary fibrosis and I’m dying, lol. Go big or go home, right? I get a chest x-ray next week to see if it’s something nefarious. Cross your fingers for me, because I’m rather sick of health shit. In all likelihood it’s probably something more benign though. I just am really sick of coughing. I’ll let you know later if I’m dying or not ;P
