----------------------------------------------------------- From: mommyof8 Message 6 in Discussion Hello, Thanks for the information. Yes, I do have a growth hormone secreting and I am well aware of what it could be doing to my internal organs. Thankfully, we are keeping an eye on all of that. My point in waiting before jumping into medical treatment is that I believe there is a reason my body made this tumor. People take medications every day for all sorts of things and never find out "why" they have the problem. That just leads to lots of other problems. Just as the tumor has an effect on your body and can shorten your life, so can medication and/or surgery. My husband had surgery to remove colon polyps last year. We spoke extensively with his doctor about why he got these stupid polyps in the first place and what his chances were of getting them again and of them turning into cancer. My husband was only 39 and there was absolutely no history of colon problems in his family. The doc completely agreed with us about our concerns. We have to figure out "why" these things are happening to our bodies and work on correcting the problems. That is not to say that we won't do conventional medicine but we do have to remember that there are definitely some pretty nasty side effects of it. Besides, if given the choice between taking this medication and laying on the couch all day being sick with headaches, nausea, etc so that I cannot take care of my beautiful children or living life to its fullest for however long God wants to give me almost symptom free, I'll take the latter. Anyways, I am going to a healing service on Saturday so anyone who is a believer out there, please keep me in your prayers. I do believe in miracles and I finally believe that I am worthy of one. Have a beautiful weekend! ----------------------------------------------------------- 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?
