Please go to a doctor. I had many of the same problems you were/are having. I had surgery for a pituitary tumor. I was out of the hospital in one day, and I feel great! No more headaches! Please, take care of yourself. Don't be so afraid to find out the true cause of your health problems, and get them taken care of! You should be more scared, to do nothing about them.
Sincerely,
Marcia

This sounds really stupid. I was in year 7 at school and it started in a german
lesson and i had the biggest headache ever which lasted for about 2 days. I was
about 12 or near that. Thought it was just a migrane. Things got a little bit
better but now and then i felt a little bit dizzy. And the back of my eyes used
to really hurt like hell behind the eyes like they were bruised. this stopped
after a while. I noticed people starting to change in year 8 and 9 and i know
this sounds really stupid but i thought i wouldnt grow up like the other people.
I did get a lot of headaches and i kept wanting to go to the doctors but i kept
putting it off and off cos i didnt want it to be anything serious. Im a very
anxious person and i worry so much! But i heard that pituaitary problems can
cause anxiety! So time passed and i guess my body was changing but so slowly.
Got to year 10 and moved school. The new people in my school looked so grown up
to my previous one and i looked so young. Headaches came and went. And felt
dizzy again some times. I got used to the fact that i probably had something
wrong with me but i didnt want to go to see anyone about it. My parents split up
my dads mum died of a brain tumour just had a little sister, dad i was on anti
depressions after mum and dad split up so i felt timing was so wrong. So year 11
came still looked young! And another year passed. Headaches started to go now. I
didnt have them anymore. Came to college and things were ok i guess. Used to
sweat so much under my arms for no reason though, and i mean buckets of sweat. I
dont know if it is me but my testis seem like that a quite small but not that
bad and my nipples seem really small too. I never take my shirt off or show my
body cos im really embarressed. My facial hair is not too much, just on the chin
and above the lip, not any sideburn hair. I got excessive hair under my arm lol.
And i got hair in other places. Though my leg hair isnt really dark but i got a
lot of it. Im naturally a blonde person so i guess thats what its like. Anyway
years passed now im 20 i guess i can pass for 18 but i still look really young,
i do get the odd headaches but puberty seems halted. I know it doesnt take an
einstien to know i have something wrong with me but every year i feel ive left
it too long. Im way too nervous to go to the doctor cos i know what he will say.
Imagine leaving it for 8 years? You know certainly its going to be big and i
will be terminal or something. I live with my dad on our own and i love him to
bits and dont want to make him worry and i dont want to go get scans have blood
tests etc. But now im 20 things just dont seem to be moving. Its so hard. I know
most of you are going to say get down to the doctors now. In the last couple of
months ive really been thinking about it and have been reading all about
pituitary. Im going to have to do something. I just need some helps and advice
before i go forward with things. I have such a loving dad who couldnt go through
something like that again and i have such a lovely little 11 year old sister who
loves me to bits as i do. Its really hard im starting to struggle through life
now. I just know when i go doctors hes going to have a go at me for keeping it
so long. I really cant go through with the scans on my brain though, how scarey
is that! 8 years is a long time for a tumour. Do you think if i get diagnosed i
will be terminal or what? Plz help before i go get help i would really like your
advice. I really am scared. Thanks.
(Plz note i really want to keep this confidential and this ip isnt even mine its
at a library so please dont attempt to contact anyone through it cos my isp is
totally different, i want to keep this personal for the time being though, thank
you)
