I'm looking for a little bit of help here. I have a large pit. adenoma that extends (mass effects) into the temporal lobe. Aside from all the other "wonderful" symptoms I've had related to this, I've been experiencing strange 'episodes' over the last several months. At first I attributed it to hormonal issues, but frustrated with these reoccuring episodes I decided to look a little on the internet and was surprised to come across the symptoms of partial temporal lobe seizures (without loss of conciousness). Is this possible??? I've mentioned this to my GP, but with an upcoming surgery this issue has been put aside. Plus I felt a little 'weird' telling him about all the experiences I go through during an episode. I guess my question is: Is this even a possibility??? Is there anyone else out there that has had partial seizures in relation to having a pituitary tumor? If so, what was your experience like? How many and how long did you experience this for? I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this issue for me. I don't want to self diagnose, but it was really shocking for me to come across the list of symptoms for these types of seizures. Everything fits. If there are people out there who have experienced this and it is indeed a possibility I would probably discuss it a bit more with my doctor no matter how strange I may think I sound to him. Just a last bit of info, these episodes usually only last a few seconds to a minute and I often have several throughout the day over a period of 1-3 days (they seem to taper off on the last day) then everything seems fine for about a month or so. Can anyone help me? Thanks for listening and thanks for sharing. |
