Frustrating Stories

  • Hi - I'm new here. Looking forward to getting to know you all.

    Monday, October 13, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    Hi - I'm new here.  As you can see in my profile.  I have a pituitary tumor, specifically a prolactinoma.  My levels are 200+ and 2 MRIs showed I have a 9mm tumor.
    I came off of birth control early 2008 in hopes of getting my cycle back to normal so that we could try to get pregnant later in 2008.  So this has put a little delay in that process.
    We aren't in a ...

    Tuesday, December 2, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    being tired can be frustrating.  Here it is at 9:20 am and my brain already feels like it's done a fulls day's work.  I feel bad for complaining when it could be so much worse, but who knew tired could feel like this!  Still, I am glad that the full, 1 tablet dose per day of Bromo seems to only affect me in this way.  I was over the whole dizziness/nausea thing pretty ...

  • Must start over!

    Wednesday, December 24, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    Oh how hard it is to change bad habits!  In the last week I have not gotten to bed even close to before 11!  And my goal is to eventually 10 every night?    Will start over - but maybe I shouldn't have started this so close to the holidays!  Plan now:  do my best over the next week and then get serious after NYE.  Merry Christimas!! Happy Holidays ...

    So..I was supposed to start running a week or two ago.  And then my brother got in a car accident, then I started school, and then my husband and I drove cross-country to buy a car (it was a ridiculously good deal.) And here I am, full of excuses.  We are in the middle of an ice storm here, and my school was cancelled for tomorrow.  So I am going to go run on the treadmill at the a...

    My friend V---- is scaring me.  I call him my friend, but we really don't know each other very well.  He showed up out of the blue and seemed really intent on becoming friends.  I loaned him money because he was in financial straits.  Big mistake.  I still haven't received repayment and it's been over two months.  Still, he's been calling, texting, an...

  • I am Baffled

    Friday, June 12, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    I must say I am at a time where I am literally baffled at the Endos here in Canada at least in Western Canda.  The province I live in we have 1 Endo who in the beginning of this told me I have a prolactinoma 4mm he put me on bromo 1 full pill a day and told me to see him in a year, that this was no big deal. Well needless to say my family Doctor didn't like that answer so she referred me...
