Numb After Fridays Edno visit-But Still New Things coming At Me*
IT sometimes takes me a few days to get over yet another bad experience with a doctor. Endo. The one at Duke said i needed treatment; this one says not.
While making an appointment to see my MD, i asked to speak to his nurse. Hope you are sitting down... She told me she was from Dallas and all she did was assist surgeons in removing Pituitary Tumors! ITs worth a try. I'm going to call the doctors she gave me there and see if they will look at 3 mri's and Dukes (treatment) and let me know if its worth me flying there or somewhere closer to home they would recommend. I cant fly that far Unless is a for sure thing they think they need to be removed.
Yesterday i called a well know and suggested by my neighbeor who see's this OBGYN for harmones, i told them about he tumors, then she called me back, wanting to see all my medical records.
Is this going to be the catch 22??? HE is known for compassion and quality over quantity of life and will give harmones. IF he needs to see med records before deciding to see me or not, its going to be because its probabbly not in his best interset to give harmones not knowing what the tumors are doing or going to do. My hubby said, you shouldn't have told her. I'm not Making anymore trips hours away only to be told no. They need to know upfront.
IF there's nothing to these tumors, (and i know better) then why do they keep taking bloodwork to see if you have the growth harmone active etc etc etc???? Just a little commone sense. Oh...by the way, the nurse in the endo on fri. said "dont worry about it, theres nothing to them. We see them ALL THE TIME! Yeah, i bet they do since 1 in 5 have them.
I look back over my writing and i hope you can sift through it. i'm not in a hurry, maybe my mind goes faster than my fingers.:)
I know very few will read this, so i basically am talking to myself and keeping up with this as i can. Only am i doing this online so that if someone comes across it, it may help them. I wouldn't wish this along with menapause on my worst enemy.
Keeping the Faith!
