Guest guest Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 PLease please send results. I recollect you have bumps on both sides or did you say the MRI did not show any. If surgery is planned any way then I see no good reason to be exposed to the radiation of the CT unless they say it will change their plan-say cancel surgery or repeat AVS if the show bump on the left. How have you done on spironolactone? If not tired and no bumps then might want to discuss the costs risks and benefits of surgery now vs after seeing how you do on MCBs. CE Grim MDOk, so its taken this long to get the AVS results...I don't have the numbers yet as I haven't seen the Endo yet. But my primary doctor did give me the basics from the Endo's report to her today. My right adrenal gland is the gland that is overproducing. I have a CT Scan tomorrow to see if they can visualize the tumor since they couldn't with the MRI. Pending the results of the CT, the endo is recommending me for a right adrenalectomy.

Guest guest Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Nothing showed on MRI, thus their reason for CT. But they said AVS indicates issue is with right adrenal. As soon as I have the numbers from the AVS I'll post them. > > > Ok, so its taken this long to get the AVS results...I don't have the > > numbers yet as I haven't seen the Endo yet.
