Thanks for sharing your story. I just had my surgery 3 wks ago and it was very scary. I wish I had seen this before. My recovery has been a little difficult because I think I returned to work too soon. I'm really interested in how you are doing now, and if there is anything you could recommend I should do to feel better sooner. Take care.

I have the same thing I have lived with my for 2 years. I have lost some vision. I have been diagnosed with Addisons disease due to thus tumor. I saw a surgeon 2 years ago they would not touch it. Now it has grown very large and has grown into my eye nerves. I am seeing the surgeon again soon to see if they can remove it.

hope you are okey pretty girl

I am 65 and found out through Ophthapamology clinic because for I kept complaining and they kept checking so one of eye Dr's said I'm sending you for MRI and I went and thats when they saw the tumor. I got appt with Neurologist and was set for surgery and yes very scary, a lot of praying but just had first ENT appt and next with Neurologist to go over what happen. In get well mode, appts to get too. Great Drs Care Team and Nursing Staff at Ochsner Health in Shreveport, LA.🙏

I just tried the short tube MRI and the open one. I'm so claustrophobic I couldn't do either one- had panic attack. I heard about the upright one and hope that will work. I, too, have to use the helmet/ face guard. Hope I will be able to breathe in that one. Terry

I was diagnosed with a pituitary cyst which it was too small and but I didn’t have any symptoms other than light headaches. But now that it’s almost a year from that I’m starting to have hormonal problems. I think that cyst had grown and now it’s affecting me so now I’ll go back to my doctor for treatment. Before it grows more and get more complicated 🥺 but still I’m feeling scared

What is the total dosage of Omnitrope you were given ?

Hi im glad i came across ur video. Im going through the same as thing as u. I really hate Mri. Ive tried being in one but it lasted less than a minute cos i cant handle being in the tunnel. I felt like im being trapped and i cant breathe. The doc told me i really need to go again and i can take sedation. May i ask what do u actually feel after getting sedated. Do you feel unconscious?

Thank you for sharing your recovery .. feel so good after watching your videos . its been 3 months since I had a pituitary tumor surgery & i am recovering well, feel a little lethargic from time to time .. Yoga & eating right is helping .. Thank you for ur sharing .. Your an Inspiration!

May I know your hometwn Bettie?

(Second comment, BUT IMO necessary) Fear is the result of not knowing what's happening. I may not be an engineer, or a biologist, but I know the (very) rough design of the machine: ⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇ "The MRI is basically a giant magnet that's in a shape of a tube, that scans the fluid in our bodies to create the MOST detailed (for now) picture of our insides. The hissing noise you hear is the is the frozen helium spraying the machine to cool it down, while the angry roaring while inside is the different layers being scanned in your body. Unless you have cheap/common metals on you, the MRI is as safe as a fridge magnet. Although anecdotal MOST nurse/doctors are more scared of X-Rays then said machine due to the unpredictable force that's radiation. X-Rays are MORE risky than MRIs but, BOTH are maintained like a shrine. If your still scared ask the nurse,. Suffering of ANY kind is NEVER tolerated, because it's NOT THE MIDDLE AGES. I hope this clears the anxiety no matter small, because we ALWAYS do silly things when we're scared. Have a lovely day :)

Claustrophobia is 1 of the most common & understandable phobias. My mother also has this phobia & she discovered she had it in the worst way possible with an MRI. She went for a scan, but in the past the machine was damaged due to a previous patient began panicking & hitting the machine while STILL inside. So the HAD to restrain her to not let the same thing happen again. She went inside, Hearing the loudest mechanical roars that would scare even 'The Terminator', while being unable to move. She screamed to the point she could see the spit painting the plastic wall. She only been inside for 10 min before NEEDING to be left out. That was back in the 80's. BUT, in modern times you can get an injection to stop the fear response to even happen in the 1st place. FYI: The MRI is basically a giant magnet that's in a shape of a tube & whoever designed it was an absolute genius. I respect the machine to the point I unironically LOVE IT! ... ... ... & I think I'm the only nondoctor who has that opinion.

My brother has a tumor in his pituitary gland. They are going through his nose. Im so worried about him!

Thanks so much for sharing your medical issue 🙏

I was recently diagnosed with hyperprolactinemia after doing a fertility panel. It was 52 or 1100. They didn't see a tumor on my MRI so if it was there it was very very small. I am on cabergoline right now and hoping it works - I've noticed some improvements and only just took one pill as I am in my first week (take twice a week) but am waiting for my menstrual cycle to return which I missed for the first time in 16 years last month. I am 29. I am hoping the missed period is from this prolactin and nothing else. It's really stressful

I just had an MRI tonight to check for this! Thanks for making this video :)

Hi were the images sufficient in the end? I’m having one next week for my brain and I’m scared about them still making me go into a tunnel due to the pictures not being good. Were yours good for the doctor?

Thanks for sharing your story! I also have it! Can i ask you a question. Did you experience hair loss?

How do u feel now??

I hope you are able to conceive now!

I have a tumor in my pituitary 4.0 mm.. I see Neurosurgent on Monday 5/20 and idk if I will need surgery or not but I’m very much scared and nervous

Can you give your tumour update now?

@72chargerse72 I have one too Im a 63 yo male.. It has been a problem for about 15 years but my previous doc was incompetent . My prolactine is 83 ish and they put me on Bromocriptine.The treatment makes me nautilus (sucks) and I have a compulsive action too. . It also crushed my testosterone (which left me too weak to do anything but sleep18 hrs a day) sweating. vision issues, ED, headaches and dizziness, trouble concentrating. Lazy docs are a bitch.. right. I get it. My diabetic doc said "I DONT CARE ABOUT THAT" She is gone too. If that little voice says something is WRONG find a new doc. Your life depends on it.

Its not just girls that this effects... I will post later

Im supposed to be having this surgery soon and i am very worried about going blind afterwards.

Agree 100 %. I freaked out on closed MRI after the nurse started to walk out. I took the Open MRI yesterday and it was so peaceful. Could not believe it. The Ativan really helped but it takes 3 days to get out of your system. I had a mask and a blanket and was so comfortable. It took 30 minutes and I felt great.

Hello and thank you for sharing your story. How soon after getting your tumor removed were you able to conceive and did you conceive naturally?

Hi Bettie, I live in South Africa. The sun is always shining here and there is always the risk of developing skin cancer if you have a light skin. I developed a growth on the lower eye lid of my right eye. I do not know if it is cancer or just a benign growth but I went on a high nutrition diet for about two months and the growth have shrunk noticeably. I would like to share the diet with you. The soup Ingredients: - two handfuls of Chopped broccoli, one chopped onion (purple), two bags of green tea, two pinches of mixed herbs, two sticks of cut celery, Two handfuls of frozen and crushed spinach or kale, half a table spoon of crushed garlic, Three shakes of black pepper, seven shakes of turmeric, two tablespoons full of apple cider vinegar (with the mother), one bag of white onion powder soup for flavour, a hand full of cooked red speckled beans and a handful of cooked mince meat. Just add all the ingredients in a pot, add boiling water and switch the stove on high till the water boils. Then lower the heat until the water simmer, Let the soup simmer for an hour. The soup is now ready. I would only drink water in the morning. At 12h00 I would start eating the soup. There will be about two helpings that you can eat in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. I also ate a fruit salad every day in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. (Note: Apparently turmeric reduces the effect of some chemotherapy drugs and thus should not be taken during chemotherapy.) During the rest of the week I would also eat food that contains vitamin D like avocado’s, mushrooms, liver and eggs in the 12h00 to 18h00 time frame. It seems to be working for me, maybe it will also work for you. I pray to God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ that you will be healed. Amen. I would like to share the following five videos with you about salvation and two videos about evolution: Evolution vs. God ua-cam.com/video/uc_W9VtzJ0A/v-deo.html DESTROYING Evolution In Under 3 Minutes ua-cam.com/video/sWecPwrQv2c/v-deo.html Watch the Holy Spirit Work in Her Heart (Very Moving) ua-cam.com/video/iBEoI2u6kII/v-deo.html Fearing The Lord, God’s Discipline & Sharing The Gospel ua-cam.com/video/dES5WW66Mro/v-deo.html A Clear Gospel Presentation by Pastor Steven Anderson - How to go to Heaven ua-cam.com/video/IXEeMWCxyrQ/v-deo.html The Plan of Salvation ua-cam.com/video/PmkhRMPvt_0/v-deo.html How to Get Saved ua-cam.com/video/ajWdkuvrT6s/v-deo.html Best regards Chris “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life”.

I've had three MRIs, 2 open and 1 in a place that had what they called wide bore for people up to 550lbs. I'm plus size but nowhere near 550lbs and that machine had me panicking! It was squeezing me around my arms and shoulders and even though I logically knew I wouldn't get stuck in it, I still felt like I might get trapped. Add to the fact that pillow clinics use tend to be too fluffy and offer no head and neck support and I didn't last ten minutes in that thing. I was so embarrassed and pissed (300 bucks on my end for that torture) and will never trust that wide bore bullsh-- label again! The 2 open ones were ok, but took 45 minutes of laying on my back, which is my problem area, so I almost couldn't get through it but I held on. I don't recall it being close to my face, I guess it was, but the sides were open, cool air was being gently blown in, and I didn't feel panicked. Really would think with all the crazy technology we have that MRIs would be less panic inducing!

Probably a bit late to comment but I am soon my have my third pituitary tumor operation due to it regrowing twice in 18 years. For anyone that is worried, don’t be, it will all be fine. 👍

How are you now, (March 2024) Bettie?❤

Thank you for this video. State of Mind os So important. I am going through the same exact surgery for the third time. I can relate to you on so many levels. God Bless you and happy I found your channel it let's me know I am not alone.

I just found out my 18 year old son has a pituitary tumor and finding your video has given me hope and eased my mind a bit thank you so much

On December 8th I got my MRI results on the 14th of December that I have a pituitary tumor. Still getting the labs done just got the lab work ordered.

I have zero cortisol and zero acth. My MrI is Monday. So scared

I had this transphenoidal surgery done 2 years ago and I am having problems such as pulsating sensation on the left side of the head and I can hear a cracking sound or clicking, it is such an unpleasant feeling and it does cause pain sometimes. Does anyone have any idea as to what it might be ?

I had my surgery last week, it was emergency because I lost my vision. Now on the road to recovery ❤

I’m in a new relationship..When should I bring this up to him? Should I give him the option to run now? I haven’t talked to an endocrinologist yet to see what the plan is for my 10mm pituitary tumor maybe I should wait til I have all the info before I let the guy in seeing know what’s going on with me. This is life changing

I just read my mri that said I have a 10mm x 9mm tumor. I cried my eyes out. When my doctor called me and told me my abnormal prolactin levels could mean I have a tumor on my pituitary gland I didnt think anything of it. I knew that couldn’t be something I’d have to deal with. Here I am today dealing with this shock. I havent talked to my doctor yet. I’ll see the endocrinologist Jan 30th. The wait is agonizing. Would surgery be something I need since it isn’t bigger than 10mm in size? What’s it like taking the meds if that is my treatment of choice ?What are side effects that some of you all are dealing with? I’m so thankful to you for making this video. It’s so comforting, you have no idea! I know I was not but you feel so alone and scare after learning you have a brain tumor! God bless you and hope that you and your family are doing well!Sincerely So scared in California

My first IUI failed and I got the results today….really heartbroken as I was so hopeful….we are going to start our second cycle right away after I get my periods…..hoping that we get lucky atleast this time

I've had so much anxiety on this. So scary. I just found out I most likely have this and I'm waiting on a specialist to get back to me. Your video helps me feel a bit less scared. I found out because I had a panic attack and they tested me for this.

Ya I got a similar think a micro adenoma and a adrenal adenoma. Finally after 9 years I figured it out. Going to run more tests to see if there are other tumors.

I have a pituitary tumor about 3cm , 31 yrs old ,unmarried, what challenges will i face after marriage if i don't get surgery

It's Dec 2023 and I hope you are still doing well.🙏

How are you feeling now ? I want to know post surgery complications if any….

Hi Bettie. I'm a 68 year old male. Just took an 8' fumble off a ladder, hitting the back of my head. Ambulance arrived and took me to ER. I had a scan which saw a mass. They also said I'd had a stroke a while back, news to me. My head is healing from the fall, nothing cracked, thank God. I'll be planning the same surgery as you had and I thank you sharing. I've got lot of questions for the Dr's. Ive got no headaches, no blurry vision. Nothing other than my ER visit findings. Ill try and remember to update you. I hope my choice of surgeons is as good as you had. Matt Bowman Yerington NV.
