My MRI Results

soooo.....i had an MRI a couple of weeks ago, looking for a possible pituitary tumor.
here's what my doctor told me this morning:

my pituitary gland is shrivled. it's a fraction of the size that it should be for my age. There is spinal fluid filling the remaining space around the gland (the space that the *should* be filling up). that fluid should not be there. there is also a spot or "dot" that may or may not be a tumor; i need to have a follow up MRI to figure that one out.


that is all. i will keep you all up to date.


much love,
*Karen~

good luck and warm thoughts.

(before i say this, i must note that i am one of those people who always tries to find something you can smile or laugh at in difficult times.)

it is interesting that you are little and have a not normal sized pituitary gland for your age.
