Lump by screw from gamma knife surgery, anyone else?

Hi, Along with multiple brain tumors, my MRI also indicates an empty sella. I'm not sure what that means and it doesn't seem like my doctors are concerned about it. Do you think I should be. Wondering what you found out. I didn't have a lump from my gamma knife and hope yours is healing. peg

My neuroogist said that neurosurgeons and neurologists are never worried about an empty sella. However, he said to check with my endocrinologist as it could be a sign of a pituitary issue. My endocrinologist has ordered blood tests to see if I have hypothyroidism. I am always cold, have put on weight and am very tired. Every female in my family has some form of thyroid issue so I might have it. Please keep checking your screw sites. Take care, Joan
