Hey Ladydove. If you find you do have a pituitary adenoma, I'll be happy to talk with you about it. I have so many hormonal deficiencies! I have to take Armour thyroid, cortisol for adrenals, and Human Growth Hormone. I feel SO much better now. Try your best not to stress because that will only make hormonal imbalances worse and lead to more illness. Breathe - deep breaths from the lower belly - in through your nose, out through your mouth. That is what saves me. The recovery from surgery is very quick. I scrolled back and tried to find your original post - but could not locate it.
