I have an update from the neurologist, and it's not good....UPDATE 7/15
The neurologist just called.
They found a growth (adenoma) on my pituitary gland.
I need to have yet ANOTHER MRI so they can see a closer pic. This time with an IV also.
Also I need to have a whole blood work-up done.
The neurologist said it looks like a cyst, he needs to see how large it is.
I am hysterical. I really need your prayers.
---------------------------------------------------- UPDATE (7/15)
First, thank you- each and every one of you for your well-wishes, prayers and hugs. It means so much to know that so many people are praying for me. I truly appreciate it, so much!
Second, I have the next (3rd) MRI tomorrow as well as a whole blood screening. They need to check different hormone levels to see what or if the adenoma (tumor) is secreting any hormones and to determine what type of adenoma I have.
Then I go on the 23rd to discuss the next course of action. I'm told it's most likely to involve surgery. But I am still holding out hope.
Thank you so much, everyone. I am praying that my next update is a good one.

Re: I have an update from the neurologist, and it's not good.
Dannys aunt had this, it was a cyst, they removed it, she is fine. Simple surgery as far as recovery.
DO NOT get yourself freaked out till you know. OK?
There is also medication they can give you ( I think????)
Just take it one step ( day ) at a time Val

Re: I have an update from the neurologist, and it's not good.
Thank you, everyone.
I just can't stop crying.
I was just hugging my son, Nicholas, and sobbing.
Please God, let this be nothing.
Please.

Re: I have an update from the neurologist, and it's not good.
Val- I wanted to add that pituatary cysts are almost ALWAYS non cancerous and they are actually VERY common.
I have one on my Thyroid, which they classify as a pituitary cyst.
PRAYING FOR YOU and KEEP US UPDATED! I hope that helps
