Hello,wish I could help you more right now but I will see a doctor in the morning. My prolactin levels came back with my blood work today and were 1000, and I have yet to see the doctor to find out what she wants to do to treat it. I have been ill for about six months now and I hope that solving this problem will fix it. As soon as my doctor can give me more information on my levels and why they are so high I will be sure to let you know. I hope that what I find out can help you in some way. All of my other tests also came back normal, this was the only one that was elivated.
