Aripiprazole use as a cause of dopamine agonist failure in the treatment of prolactinomas by Edward Mignone et al.
Edward Mignone et al. present a cautionary case report of profoundly reduced dopamine agonists efficacy in an aggressive #prolactinoma immediately after commencing #aripiprazole, as well as a systematic review of aripiprazole use in prolactinomas.

So pretty much good news across the board, knock wood. #prolactinoma #macroadenoma
Quick health update - I met with my endocrinologist yesterday to discuss my latest brain MRI and bloodwork for my pituitary tumor.
tl;dr: Steady as she goes.
#prolactinoma #macroadenoma
Left: the size of my pituitary tumor last April.
Right: the size of my tumor this week.
Latest MRI shows tumor volume shrunk by 55% over six months.
Plus, my latest bloodwork reaffirmed that it's ceased wreaking havoc on my endocrine system.
Time to eat these blueberries.

A beautifully poignant tribute from @davidfrum.bsky.social to his late daughter Miranda, and a sobering reminder that benign brain tumors can be just as dangerous as malignant ones. #prolactinoma #meningioma #acousticneuroma #gangliocytoma
When you gotta prepare for those medication side effects #pituitarytumor #prolactinoma
Getting my followup MRI to see how much my pituitary tumor has shrunk since I began cabergoline treatment. Based on recent bloodwork, I’m expecting some progress. Fingers crossed! #prolactinoma #macroadenoma
...and a kid-friendly report from Elmo. #prolactinoma #chatbot
More fun with chatbots: here's the tumor giving a monologue as The Judge from Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian.... #prolactinoma #chatbot
My daughter thought it'd be funny to take the notes I typed on my phone from my endocrinology appt following my pituitary tumor diagnosis and send it to a brain-rot chatbot, rewriting my notes from the perspective of the tumor. I don't remember the last time I've laughed this hard. #prolactinoma
** raises hand for #prolactinoma **
Diagnosed this spring. Meds seem to be extremely effective so far. Getting my next followup brain MRI on Monday. Fingers crossed!
I don’t blog anymore due to my cognitive issues, but if you’d like to read about my journeys with #mentalhealth, #chronicilless, #chronicpain, or specifically ##endometriosis, #infertility, #prolactinoma, #POTS, #aneurysm, or #spinalcsfleak, #csfleak… I have a blog at ribbonrx.com!
Any fellow #chronicillness people on here? I’d love to follow! #POTS #celiacdisease #prolactinoma #endometriosis #csfleak are a few of my, erm, friends.
