Lightbulb Nat, everyone update on surgery.

Hi Everyone,

So far I am doing well after my pituitary surgery. I had the most excellent care by 2 of the very best doctors. Also the hospital where I was had the best ICU nurse!

I am amazed that after one week all the redness and round basketball look of my face is almost gone. I have lost 1 1/2 inches of my neck. (This helps as I was resembling a Tony Little there for awhile ) I am very tired and a little weak right now.

I cannot start exercising again for awhile. It will probably be 6-8 weeks and then be very gradual for me. Right now I am trying to learn the cortisol replacement things. I am waiting for final labs to come back but it's looking like a cure!!!

I am now going to restructure my eating etc.

Thanks for all the support. Jeanne
