Prolactinoma - I have a brain tumour

[hypnorm]

Some will know that i have been having tests for infertility, I recently had a review and the test came back today, with quite an unexpected and worrying result.

I have a Prolactinoma which is basically a brain tumour, I am now awaiting an emergency referal to a Endocrinologist to deterimine treatment.
Thank fully it is not malignant and is treatable and will not spread, but it poses a risk to my eye sight, causes extreme headeaches and causes infertility.

I will have a MRI scan at some point, and then treatment will be decided. Hopefully just with drugs or at worst radiotherapy or potentially Sugery to remove it.
I know this will be as much of a shock to you as it was this morning to me and Tom.

So at least have a reason why i am not 'catching' although could have done with out the brain tumour result.

Not sure how i am feeling... numb, calm, shit scared am having a hellish year so far!

Blimey, what a bolt out of the blue.

I am glad that you have your results lovely. However, I wanted to send you my love - I cannot imagine what you are going through.

I found a lump on my breast the day before yesterday and just feel numb.

It makes you realise how precious life and the things around you are. xxx
