Advice about prolactinoma

My son’s blood tests show high prolactin levels, awaiting an MRI however GP suspects prolactinoma. I’m worried sick - has anyone any advice and/ or experience of this?

Probably a long shot but he hadn't taken any motillium (domperidone) medicine before the blood test had he? It's an anti-sickness medication which can cause high levels of prolactin in blood tests.

Thanks for your response; no he hadn’t taken anything before the blood tests. He was having Symptoms so the GP tested for prolactin.

I'm sorry to hear he's been having symptoms. I'm afraid I don't have any experience (beyond an incorrect suspicion of prolactinoma due to the medication I mentioned). I'm bumping this for you though just in case anyone else can help.
