View allMy wife was just diagnosed with a pituitary microadenoma measuring 4.1x6x5.2 mm on her MRI. Can this be treated with medication or will she need surgery? I'm really worried about what the next steps should be.
A pituitary microadenoma, especially one as small as 4.1x6x5.2 mm, is often managed without immediate surgery, and medication may be sufficient. Your wife will likely need follow-up imaging and potentially hormone testing to determine if the tumor is causing hormone imbalances or is actively growing. The best course of action will depend on a multidisciplinary team of experts, including a neurosurgeon, endocrinologist, and possibly an ophthalmologist.

I've been experiencing sudden sweating and a sort of flurry feeling, and I've had a bunch of tests done with nothing major coming up except for a B12 and vitamin D deficiency, as well as high cholesterol. Is there something specific I should be worried about or maybe something else I should check out? I'm just not sure what's causing these symptoms.
