Hey guys here's my original thread

Here's my blood work from a few months ago

And here's this week's bloodwork, slightly more extensive

As a lot of you have guessed my prolactin is quite high, my doctor would like me to get a follow up blood test and then an MRI to check for a pituitary tumor if both tests are elevated. There's a few shocks, I was expecting my testosterone to be on the lower side which would explain my symptoms and I was not expecting my TSH to be that low or trigs to be so high.
The triglyceride level is what's worrying me most now, high prolactin may be unfun but it won't kill me.
I was a bit reckless with my thyroid supplement, I'm hoping that the high trigs are just temporarily elevated as my thyroid settles.
I actually feel a lot better since I made my first thread, I've made the following changes in the past week
I'm going to keep eating fruits but I'm a bit scared of refined sugars now that my trigs are so high. Maybe I'll get the red bull and opt for some juice (anyone drink appletiser?)
The gynecomastia is still there but I'm not stressing about it as much, there's not a lot I can do about it right now so why freak out. I think I may have brought it on myself by chugging 3L of milk everyday when I clearly didn't tolerate it, going too fast on the thyroid might have increased estrogen or something too.
Anyway any advice is welcome, I'm particuarly interested in what people have to say about the 2nd pic, I don't really understand what any of those liver enzymes mean and I know Peat has a different take on Urea.

I actually feel a lot better since I made my first thread, I've made the following changes in the past week
- Cut milk in favour of cheese - too much liquid was causing bloating and milk was giving white coating on tongue (which is now gone)
- Stopped thyroid supplement completely
- Haven't gone to the gym this week - I'd like to go back but maybe just twice a week
- Coffee consumption down as a result of lowering milk intake - I might look into caffeine pills
- More lambs liver - increasing vitamin A was a common suggestion, I'm doing about an oz each day, might cut back
- No aspirin this week
- No cypro this week
