I got an MRI today and if i can't get my parents stupid computer to stop fighting with their stupid scanner i will post a pic :0, it is about the size a a walnut (a normal pituitary gland is the size of a pea). Oh and they took all sorts of x-rays and are gonna put them up on a lightboard in the middle of the hospital reserved for "interesting cases". They also found that the tumor has wrapped around the cartoid (sp?) atery. This complicates the surgery and it is now urgent and can't be put off.

Thanks all for the good wishes.

my bf had a brain tumor when he was little and now he's the handsomest devil on the block, so WATCH OUT LADIES!!

yeah cept my tumor makes me look like a cave man, but it's alright i already snagged a lady ;)

good luck on your surgery

sorry to hear about it. Good luck.

I've never had any internet friend die. :(

that'd suck. :(

PROFESSOR COOL NEVA FORGET >:

gahh not the carotid artery >: fuck you tumor

seriously though, good luck. i don't normally read your posts, as i tend to skim most posts, but i'm sure you're a nice guy in real life.

I just looked back at the pyph thread, this was after i posted a pic :(

IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW :(

PS YOU ARE ALL FUCKING JERKS FOR MAKING FUN OF A MAN WITH A CONDITION >:

good luck with surgery.

did you not go to the doctor often or what because any doctor worth a crud should be able to notice the signs of acromegaly right off the dang bat so this should have been taken care of a while ago i recommend you sue *yourself* for pickin a lousy doctor!

No seriously If big were to die these forums would lode a wall and the newbies would jus pour in and be disrespectfull jackasses and make fun of the dead guy.

lode a wall :rolleyes

"Lose a wall"

Fuck you edit button

And fuck your rains right up the butthole

I think that only works on Buffy, but I'm not sure.

Good luck. When's the operation?

I also wish you luck with the operation

I'm so sorry this is happening to you. Please keep your chin up and realize that we are all hoping for the best. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers and hope that you keep us informed.

Good luck to you.

A while back someone asked what the largest tumor was.

It was a 200+lbs one that no doctor would dare remove due to it being located near the woman's spinal cord I believe. But eventually someone accepted and after several hours of surgery and her losing over 6 times the amount of blood in her body, they finally removed it.

Why the Hell have people been saying good luck? Since when was being a doctor something to do with luck? It's skill, they didn't spend however long they spent learning to be a doctor to flip a coin.

Rant over, hope they succeed, even though I am sure they will!

Wishing "good luck" is for obvious reasons. Up until a certain time, it's been bad luck in whatever the reason for wishing a person "good luck" is/was for. Skill, via the medical profession in this case, has little to do with "good luck."

In fact, if one has to wish a surgeon "good luck," one had better find another fucking doctor real quick. Preferably before the first cut. >:
