Hi Sarah,
I had that "problem" too. I was diagnosed with a very large (tennis ball size) pit. tumor in 1983. Had 3 surgeries & radiation. I was told it would be shrunk to about the size of a peach pit and would become a dead mass with only a 10% chance of re-growth. In 1986 I went in for what had become a very routine CAT scan. After the scan the CAT operator was acting weird. Kept insisting I should take the film and go to my surgeon. I was at Columbia Presbyterian in NYC a HUGE hospital. I told him it was just a routine CAT and send the films up like usual.
That Saturday morning I received a call from my neurosurgeon telling me my tumor had disappeared.
To say I was thrilled would have been an understatement.
Twenty years since and no sign of tumor.
Congratulations!
Mike

Hi Everyone!!!!
The Gland Doctor that I have been seeing since December of last year, just told me that he got the MRI results from the Gland Doctor that I have been seeing at OHSU. He got the results from 2004 and 2005, guess what? He told me that my
Pituitary Tumor has disappeared!!!!!!!
He said that the 2004 and 2005 MRI results showed no Pituitary Tumor.
It is good news, but I am really confused about this and also I am mad that the Gland Doctor at OHSU didn't tell me that my Tumor is gone.
I had a MRI done in 2003 and it showed a Pituitary Tumor, that's was when I
found out about the Tumor. I just can't figure out how it disappeared on it's own,
I will be seeing my Gland Doctor in March, and I will be talking to the Gland Doctor at OHSU on the phone this Wednesday, I am hoping to get some answers about this. Has anybody had this problem before? Please tell me I need to know.
Thanks
From,
Sarah
