    sarah, i am really glad that you decided to share with us. some of us have missed your posts and figured something was wrong.

    are you saying that the meds are suppose to reduce this tumor and if so, no surgery will be required?
    what is the next step if the tumor does not shrink?

        The meds are to shrink the tumour they make me feel sick though so hopefully no surgury I am learning as I go along as well so as I know more you will know more too. If the tumour does not shrink I will have to have surgery and from what I understand they go through the nose but not too sure. And It can really mess up your hormiones so if I can not have that I will be really happy.

              Sarah - My brothers wife had a similiar problem a year ago January. She kept thinking she was pregnant because of the swinging hormones AND her period stopped. They finally discovered the tumour. We were scared to death - as I'm sure you are. But the GREAT news is that the meds worked brilliantly and within about 6 months she felt like a new person. 6 months later she had dropped 30 pounds without much effort. (She told us that she must have had the tumour for a while because she couldn't remember feeling so well in a long, long time.)

              She goes back every 3 months now for a scan and blood work, but so far things are great! I will hold out this wish and prayer for you!!! (plus I have to say that the nutritional state of your body plus all of your health and exercise and ALL the mental positive energy that got you where you are today will sustain you (and your body) thru this!)

              All my thoughts and prayers!

                  Sarah-
                  I was wondering where you and your awesome arms were. I am so sorry you are going through this. I hope your meds take care of the tumor and you can feel better really soon.

                  Take care,

                    Sarah,

                    I had a scare with cervical cancer a couple of years ago. So, I know how frustrating & scary this kind of stuff is. Just have faith that the med's will shrink it, but be ready for surgery if it's needed. If worse comes to worse, they have many good hormone med's out today to help keep you ballanced. Your body should adjust to the meds you're on now and the side effects usually diminish. The important thing is that that tumor gets the smack down! I'll be sending out all sorts of good vibes your way!

                    Keep busy! Treat it like a bad breakup. Stay busy and try to keep your mind off of it as much as possible. Look for support when you can't.

                    Love,
                    Kim
