Pituitary Macroadenoma
I was diagnosed with numerous different diagnoses ranging from Kidney stones, Interstitial Cystitis, Prostate infection, and Pudendal nerve entrapment. Then finally I was diagnosed with a pituitary macroadenoma after an MRI of my brain found it. My symptoms ranged anywhere from having burning in the pelvic floor, burning upon urination, weight gain, muscle loss, fatigue, depression, anxiety, mood swings and bursts of anger. Even after I have started treatments for the pituitary macroadenoma I am still having burning upon urination, burning in the pelvic floor, depression, anxiety, mood swings and bursts of anger. I don't want to be on medications for the rest of my life and guessing as to what it could be and have no sense of exactly what my condition is and have it treated properly. I was exposed to radiation and radioactive elements on a daily basis working for the U.S. intelligence during the Iraq war and in combat every day. These symptoms impact my life every day and my relationships with my family and friends. I am seeking help because I want real answers, not guessing and I want an absolute treatment that can help me get back to where I use to be just a few short years ago. I want to have the energy to enjoy my daughter and enjoy life again.
