----------------------------------------------------------- From: liltrubin Message 16 in Discussion <WBR>Dear Seagirls3: I guess if it is working for you and your symptoms are managed then you are fine. I would still go get an MRI every now and again. You are taking medication to control your tumor. Medication works to control your type of tumor. Other types of tumors cannot successfully be controlled with medication and they continue to slowly grow. You need to do what works for you. Even seeing an endo as well as a neurologist who is a pain specialist I went from completely functional with the best health I ever had to not being able to function, drive, or complete normal everyday activities in a matter of three weeks. My tumor was classified as non-functioning for 5 years and then all the sudden my cortisol was high as well as my prolactin so I have no idea what type of tumor my monster has developed into-:) I should find out by the end of this week when the pathology report comes back. Good for you for being managed so well. That is very exciting!!!! It also gives the rest of us hope and shows new people that these little monsters can be managed!!!!

Dizzy-headaches - help! ----------------------------------------------------------- New Message on Pituitary Chat ----------------------------------------------------------- From: Seagirls3 Message 15 in Discussion I was diagnosed after the birth of my 2nd daughter, went on Dostinex 2x weekly and became pregnant with my 3rd daughter a couple months after my period started. That was almost 6 years ago now. My question is: Does anyone NOT see an endo? I only see my family dr. She checks my prolactin about every 6 months and adjusts the Dostinex accordingly. I have been taking 1/2 a pill once a week for about the past 6 months. I've had ONE MRI, ever. It was small, 7mm when I was diagnosed. Who knows what it is now. They don't plan to do another one! Does this seem "normal"? ----------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this e-mail, or change how often it arrives, go to your E-mail Settings. http://groups.msn.com/PituitaryChat/_emailsettings.msnw Need help?
