I have a macoadenoma on my pituitary gland.

Surgery Too Soon to Tell

I had surgery on August 19, 2009. Although it was scary, I am 100% back to normal now. I have yet to get back my blood tests to see if the prolactin levels have lowered, but will be getting the results soon. My tumor was large enough and in a good position for it to be removed successfully. I will know in 2 1/2 months if my gland isn't damaged, but as of now, my mood swings, depression, and panic attacks are gone. I never tried medicine, but I feel a lot better after having the surgery.
