question: Hi, I am 39 years old and after having an MRI scan, it was confirmed that I have a 4mm tumour in my pituitary gland. I have been taking quinagolide (75mg daily) since Dec 2010. My prolactine levels have returned to completely normal and I have now had my 6th period, which is great news as I am trying to get pregnant. I have since lost 3.5 stone in weight to help this process and improve my overall fitness.    In the past 3 weeks, my finger tips have gone numb (including thumb and pinkie finger) 3 times. This starts in my left hand, then shortly goes to my right hand. It lasts for between half an hour to  couple of hours at a time. I have an appointment with my consultant in a few months time for a 'check up', but am concerned about this numbness (with pins and needles sensation). Is this connected with either the tumour or the drugs and shall I try and get an appointment set up for an earlier date? Any advise would be greatly received.   Kind regards Michele
