Perhaps you can send your films to him and get a patient not present consult?   Lisa, get another opinion. It is wrong to think that just because you have a pituitary microadenoma and empty sella that you are making your symptoms up. If you are having endocrine deficiencies and excesses, they need to be taken seriously.   Microadeomas are typically watched and not surgically removed UNLESS they are hormone secreting tumors. If they are secreting TSH causing hyperthyroidism, GH causing acromegaly, or ACTH causing Cushings, they are removed as a first line treatment. Dopamine agonists are used as first-line treatment for PR causing hyperprolactinemia, and surgery as a second-line treatment.   Also... Daryl is right - what was that size again?   Minnie View other groups in this category.
