here is a case i need to diagnose:
A man was finally encouraged by his wife to go to the doctor. The man was experiencing headaches and loss of his peripheral vision. What alarmed him though was that he was producing breast milk. The doctor asked him waht medication he was on and he told the doctor he was on phenothiazine for his high blood pressure. His blood test results confirmed that he had a high level of prolactin.
i have diagnosed this as either galactorrhea or prolactinoma. Different websites give me different answers for what prolactinoma and galactorrhea are. Can anyone tell me what is right?
