Dear Cinny:
Your surgeons skill is key. My surgeon went up through my nose, removed my
entire tumor and I woke up without even dressing under my nose. No packing
nothing!!!! You will need some help, like someone to drive you and you will not
be able to pick up anything heavier then a cell phone for the first three
weeks.
Something would be wrong if you were not scared-:) I cried before my
surgery-:)
HUGS,
Tina

HI, I AM JUST SO SCARED. opps sorry
about the caps. i want to find a doctor that knows what he is doing. i live
in
vermont and have to travel 2 hours one way to get to a pit doctor. i have no
intenrion of just any doc cutting on me. were you scared? did they go up your
nose to remove the tumor? and if so, did they pack your nose? i am
scared that once they put me out for the operation, i will never wake up and
die on the table. i live alone and have no family. i am so scared.

Cinny,<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I had
surgery about 8 weeks ago for a non-functioning 2 CM pit tumor. It had
already invaded my bone. The surgeon wasnt sure if they could get it all or
not. After surgery and post another MRI, I found out that while they got
most of the soft tissue tumor, there was still so much in the bone and
now
tumor around the carotid artery that I still have to have radiation
too. So, I see the radiation doctor this week to determine what kind,
etc. My tumor is also very close to the optic nerve, so not sure which
theyll recommend.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p>
Like Tina, I would also have to say that the surgery and recovery wasnt
nearly as bad as I feared. My biggest complaint afterwards was a lot of
fatigue and nose discomfort from the splints. But the pain was very
manageable.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Good
luck!<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p>
