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! Chat Icon

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. Chat Icon Chat Icon But I am still holding out hope.

Thank you so much, everyone. I am praying that my next update is a good one. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

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 Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Thank you, everyone.

I just can't stop crying.

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!
