Hello,
It is not usual for high prolactin levels to cause joint pains. Arthritis may cause such issues. Instead, you should be evaluated with brain MRI with gadolinium and visual field, in order to evaluate a possible pituitary adenoma. Discuss with a Neurosurgeon for these issues.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
