Just need a little guidance .

I'm not overly worried but rather curious to what this could mean , if it's anything to be concerned about , as I'm currently not worried but I just don't understand what the result would mean, I'm not the brightest

I don't want to hassle my doctors if it's something over nothing ,

For reference I have on going symptoms of dizziness for the past year , not like vertigo but rather constant motion along with a pain that start at the back of my head and into my neck.

I had a ecoptic pregnancy a year ago and since then I've just generally not been ok , so I just had a full test of hormones , because I believed some of this could be hormones ,

Allot came back normal ( grateful ) borderline iron deficiency I'm not surprised so I'm starting iron supplements, potassium was kinda of low but I need to do that work with my diet .

But I'm just wondering if with this result I need to do the work here , as in is this something I can correct ??

For reference I've had a MRI last march from the ent before these results , MRI was clear then in march , so I know it's not an issue there

I'm not planning on contacting the doctors as I don't want to waste their time if this is nothing .

Thank you .

When a blood level is off the doctor usually messages or calls to explain. If you don't hear from them in a few days you should reach out. I don't think it's worrisome but it does require follow up. Meanwhile do some research on high prolactin levels.

When I was younger I once had a high prolactin level. I was sent for a bone density test and also to a neurologist to check the pituitary gland. My bone density was fine and I had a microscopic benign pituitary tumor. The neurologist said I was most likely born with it and I did not need treatment or medicine.
