Met with the endocrinologist today. After looking at my MRI and how much that little tumor is pushing against my optic nerves, he said he would be very surprised if the neurosurgeon DIDN'T want to do surgery to remove it.
So now we have to wait this week for a call from the neurosurgeon's scheduler so we can meet with him. The good news is that he is very good at this kind of surgery. He performs hundreds every year and is one of a few in the country who is a specialist in this type of procedure. The bad news is that there is more waiting. If we're lucky, we will get a call within a week to set up a consult with the neurosurgeon. However, we've been told his schedule is booked out the next couple of months. That's just to meet him. Never mind the actual surgery. Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll be an earlier opening. Let's hope! I'll keep you posted!
