I went to the opthamologist yesterday because i recently lost my periphreal vision. The doctor saw that my eyes were in perfect shape and suggested i get a CT scan. It showed that i have a rather large pituitary tumor that has grown to a size that it is putting pressure on my optical nerve.
There is a 99% chance that the tumor is benign, but it will still have to be either shrank using radiation or removed. The tumor has apparently been there for a long time and i have manifested all the symptoms associated with acromeglia (over production of growth hormone due to a pitutitary tumor, Andre the Giant yo) big hands, big feet, big head, and my Herman Munster-esque facial features.
I am going to see a neurosurgeon monday and my doctor thinks that there is a 90% chance that he will decide surgery is the way to go.
Well that's my story
