Good News


I just wanted to let everyone know that I have seen the doctor yesterday and he is pretty sure it is a pituitary tumor. I have to have tons of blood work done on Friday and then next week see 2 more doctors. They are both ears, eyes and throat doctors. If the one blood test shows its my hormones they maybe able to shrink it with medicine but if not I have to have the surgery performed through my nose. I am happy about that because I didn't really want any drilling through my skull. I am keeping my fingers crossed that we can just use medicine to shrink the tumor.

I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.

Well, that would be something to be thankful for wouldn't it? I have been praying for you and I hope they can just use hormones rather than surgery. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Got here via Kathy--I had a cancer scare--got the reprieve for 6 months at least, on Wednesday. I think you have a terrific attitude and that goes a long, long way. Be well.
