Brain Tumor Update

So here is my official update - after visiting a neurologist, neuro-opthamologist, and neurosurgeon all in one month, Bob the brain tumor remains the same size he was back in April. The tumor isn't causing my migraines and the migraines are pretty well controlled with some meds - so now I get to come back to the neurosurgeon in a year and make sure Bob the brain tumor is still behaving himself. (Yes I named my brain tumor - when you get one, you can name yours too!)

Bob needs to disappear!!!! You sound strong and I'm sure this helps you (especially when you go and see the size of Bob each year).  I get migraines also, so I can relate to that at any rate.  Keep you chin up buttercup and beat Bob to the curb!!!!!!!!

Glad to read that Bob is behaving and that you have such a positive attitude and that the meds are able to control the migraines- sending good karma your way.  HT

Girl, I've named anything from moles to giant blisters...I'd definitely be naming a brain tumor. I'm sorry to hear you have to deal with all of this, but that is wonderful news that there has been no changes. Sending you good thoughts and healthy vibes!

Thanks for all of the love and support!  I'm ok with Bob sticking around (as long as he stays little and doesn't start pressing on things - then he'll start causing extreme facial pain and/or paralysis, so don't want that.  But if he stays little, he's welcome to occupy a tiny corner of my psyche.  I guess I'll never be lonely again lol!

Have an awesome night everyone!

Pituitary tumor? I have one, but didn't realize I could name the pesky bugger.
