                                            Low cortiosl should be addressed.
Detailed Answer:
Good day,
Sorry to hear about your symptoms. I am surprised that an endocrinologist is not following you. Primary care doctor will find it hard to handle such a complex issue.
You seems to have multiple hormone deficiency arising due to pituitary adenoma.
It is unsafe to take synthroid when your cortisol levels are low. First the low cortisol level should be corrected by Hydrocortisone tablets and synthroid should only be added after that. The low sodium levels is likely to be due to low cortisol levels.
I would like to know your last testosterone levels as well.
Cabergoline in high doses also can cause flushing over face.
Diabetes seems to be doing good with the new dose of lantus.
Is it possible for you to attach your blood reports? Has an IGF-1 test been done anytime?
In short the symptoms what you have could be a combination of cortisol deficiency, low sodium and also from Cabergoline. You surely need an endocrinology review soon.
