Results from CT Scan (July 23, 2009) Mood
Sunday, July 26, 2009 | A Sad story

July 23, 2009

 

I went to see my doctor (who was on vacation....so had a fill in) for the results from the CT scan that had taken place July 8/09 after having high level of prolactin in blood - 23 (0-20 is normal range). 

 

The CT scan resulted in showing a 2mm micro-adenoma (prolactinoma).  The radiologist recommended a MRI scan to confirm the findings.  My doctor sent the papers away requesting a scan that day.  I have never been so scared before in my life. 

 

I came home very scared and started searching online to what this meant.  The replacement doctor, who doesn't speak English very well, didn't provide me with many details....when I asked him what the next steps were....he said I don't know I am not a neuorosurgeon!

 

I found this website which has helped hearing others going through (or have gone through) the same thing. 

 

As my husband was out of town, I called him with the news.  I also called a close friend of mine who also had difficulties TTC. 

 

Next step is to break it to my parents.
