HELP!
Hi, 19M (ftm) diagnosed prolactioma, on cabergoline but have had these symptoms pre-meds

I have been referred to a clinic this week which specialises in diabetes. This was done without my knowledge but would explain a lot of weird symptoms I've been having. I feel perhaps I am either diabetic or have hyperglycemia since I have been experiencing the following:

extreme hunger,

weight loss,

feelings of low blood pressure when standing up quickly,

thirsty more often,

a burning pain in my feet from barely any walking/standing,

fatigue,

randomly feeling out of breath/heart racing,

occasional inflamed knees,

cold sweating,

waking up with a dry mouth,

tingling feet/dead legs often in the morning,

dry skin,

frequent mucus(?),

headaches

Damn thats a lot. Wondering if anyone has any of these symptoms and has been diagnosed diabetic etc? I am really confused on what is wrong with me, I'd have thought if I was diabetic it would've been picked up on by now through my blood tests?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi, 19M (ftm) I have begun my first doses of cabergoline, taking half a tablet once a week. I am currently on week 4, taking my next half dose tomorrow until I am upped to a full dose (1 pill) next week. I'm not sure if this is coincidental, but I have noticed that my emotions have changed, and I feel more irritable. Good side effects include more of a drive to do things, and a more positive mindset compared to before cab, however I feel like I now feel emotions slightly different. I used to be a very sensitive person (I still am) and I would cry often in small spurts, I'm not sure if this was to do with my prolactinoma but now I seem to get less upset and more frustrated if anything. Upon feeling frustration, it takes more to upset me however when it gets to a point I've noticed that I just get mad and snappy. I am someone who usually thinks my words over before I say them yet I have found myself snapping at my gf, my mom, and even my room mate, without stopping to think as much as I usually would. I never normally raise my voice or shout but I have been SO short tempered and frustrated. I hate feeling like I'm looking for excuses for what would otherwise be 'rude behaviour' but can't help but wonder if it's my body reacting to cabergoline. I am worried for when my doses are increased.

Does anyone else have experience in this/have any advice? Does this subside with time or is it completely unrelated?

Anything helps!!
