Recently found out I have a pineocytoma and a non-functional pituitary microadenoma on my MRI. I've been taking Eltroxin for thyroid issues for the past 15 years, and my recent hormone tests T3, T4, TSH, prolactin, ACTH, and growth hormone are all normal. Is there any way to treat these tumors with medication or do I need surgery?

Should I be so worried about being a type 1 diabetic?
Over time, type 1 diabetes complications can affect major organs in your body, including heart, blood vessels, nerves, eyes and kidneys. Maintaining a normal blood sugar level can dramatically reduce the risk of many complications. Eventually, diabetes complications may be disabling or even life-threatening.
