Hello! Let's see... what to tell!

My name is Jeannie. I am a retired (thanks hubby) ER RN. My husband is an ER Physician and Medical Director.

I recently found out I am falling apart. LOL I am trying to take it lightly, just because, what else can you do, let it drive you crazy?

I found out I had adrenal adenomas. My labs were all over the place. Had an MRI of my pituitary, because my labs showed possible pit tumor. MRI was negative, currently getting second opinion. Labs are showing pit failure with possible hypothalamus involvement.

I can in no way relate to your cluster headaches. I do have migraines and severe hyperhidrosis from my hypothalamus mess. But they do not compare in any way to what most of you experience.

I met Ike on Xbox. He and Tam are my COD buds! Great people. I came here to support him and to see if I can find a shoulder or two to lean on when I feel like falling apart.

Thanks for the invite to this forum! I will go have a look around now!

Ok, I just have to post this little emoticon, because he is TOO cool!

Hi sweetie
For the things you have going on right now this is the place to be! if you wanna kick and scream this is the place (feel free to use the hidden part)
Thats a place that only members can see so its nice and private.

Its great to have another doc on board !
the things you have with you hypothalamus may be a little different but we are all here because of it !

have a look around and we will help all we can and ive a feeling your going to learn a lot from us and i think you will be able to help us with things

Ike

Hi Jeannie,

Welcome to the board.. we are happy have you here!

I am sorry about the mess that you are going through, that does not sound like any fun at all. Stupid hypothalmuses..

Anyways, welcome!

Jill

Hello Jeannie and welcome

Sorry to hear you are suffering from adrenal problems. Although different but I think CHers often have adrenal burn outs too. This can affect a lot of things and can really drive ones health to the brink.

Hope your days have been bright
