I was diagnosed with a prolactinoma in May. Since then ive had anaphylaxsis twice and been diagnosed with, RA, Sjorgens, SLE, & psoriatic arthritis. And also hypothyrodism. I cant get any of my Drs to listen to me but i logically think these could all be related. Any suggestions? Ive found articles online that suggest prolactin does play a factor in auto immunity..

Hi @kimber3429 - similar. Microadenoma diagnosed as prolactinoma in 2012. Shortly after the pain started in my feet, then knees. Saw endo's, ortho's, rheumo's etc repeatedly but no one could diagnosed. Sympoms similar to gout but it was ruled out repeatedly. New rheumo thinks psoriatic arthritis with a side of high uric acid but still not sure. I'm in my early 40s now. The pain is all over now, consistently a 3 in the feet, 2-4 in knees, 3 in wrist, 2-5 lower back, 3 in neck. Inconsistently (3ish times a year) the pain is a 8-10 for over a week. I have no real point here but commiserating. Any one else?
