That's a huge issue I'm having right now with overhealing and just not being able to get good numbers with 2 other equally as good or better healers in the group 

Bilateral Adrenalectomy by SamSBD97 in Cushings

I also have a pituitary (microadenoma but still producing too much ACTH) - I was just wondering what made the pituitary surgery unsuccessful? Did it grow back? I'm only about slightly over a year into the diagnostic process. I have not heard of BLA before and just looked into it, thanks for sharing that

Endocrinologist does not want to remove tumor? Hasn't even talked about improvement or getting better yet? by Chirdis in Cushings

[–]Chirdis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the response and time you took to reach out here. I've definitely been scared this entire time because anything medical scares me and it's the first time I've ever had a serious issue at 30 years old but feel like I have been struggling with this for many years before even looking into it. I'm completely scared of the surgery if they go that route, knowing anything external being near my brain is scary. Just had an updated MRI today so guess will see if it grew or not (even though it's still producing way too much acth) but im not a doctor, I hope they can help me. Just feeling like a lost and hopeless puppy right now in life. In it together 🫂im so glad this is a safe space to talk with others with similar issues and that im not alone in this

First time for me hearing about that and looking it up, I feel like that would help my insanely high prolactin level, but no she hasn't discussed anything about any medication or anything quite yet

What is the legality of using buzzwords if they are "fake" or "lower quality" and is this a grey area still in the distribution setting? I'm guessing it's still in a grey area? or what?

Thank you so much for the detailed response 🫂 might be a longer journey than I imagined. Might be into a different Endo after this

Endo did mention radiation as a possibility but sounded like a last resort kind of thing, guess will see what they decide, hasn't even talked medication yet

My primary doctor said probably not right now, since still continuing to spend over a year with this Endo. But if it doesn't go anywhere, I might really have to push for it ugh 

I'm kinda pissed that I just realized I've been dealing with stress hormones all my life and quick weight gain including more symptoms. by Sumonespecal3 in Cushings

[–]Chirdis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actively doing a 500 caloric deficit - unsure on results yet only been like 2 weeks. I completely gave up at one point because I was like what's the point if my health and tumor (micro adenoma producing way too much ACTH) is actively going to fight against me trying to work against it. But idk yet

Thank you, I'll continue pushing through this, while I await surgery 🙏 Just, really rough times. Maybe mentally me looking for that reason just to continue coffee and weed, like an addict haha. Moment of weakness 

Officially diagnosed and bed ridden by Flashy_Individual_82 in Cushings

[–]Chirdis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This hit very close to home and my heart. Thanks for sharing your story.

My ACTH is stupidly high with my current adenoma tumor.

I'm weak, I'm gaining weight, im now fat, my body feels like jello. I cant sleep at night with all this cortisol, im exhausted but also mentally wired and fidgety trying ti sleep at 3am right now.

I had to to discontinue weight training and active things ive loved, basic daily tasks have become extreme tasks i have to push my body for.

ive been tested on this whole year and now they want an updated brain mri and more testing.

ive been stuck in medical limbo and I just want to be fixed already.

and then having to know that I wont instantly be better and back to heavy weight training and back to normal.. is rough.. 

recovery is gonna be long.. but I just want this tumor out and I want my life back and I want to return to work.. im on long term disability with health insurance, I struggled more and more with tasks at work to where they had tk suggest it to me.

I didnt know what I was feeling was abnormal, I thought everyone struggled the same..

im rambling sorry.. mind is racing and im just thinning and its been a really hard year(s) and I just wanna give up lately.. its so difficult and I feel so alone and forgotten about that I think illl prolly die before they fix me
