Some time ago, this website was so nice !
I could post here, get some answer, and some support.

Unfortunately, now, when an ill person needs some information and some support, this site BECAME MUTE !

Thank you.

But I wrote that message when I had a Pheochromocytoma, I was somewhat scared, and I needed some support. I had no response.
On 8th January, I went through surgery, and had the Pheochromocytoma removed.

Would you like to share your problem with me ?

Best regards,

Diana

Hi Diana
I have been diagnosed with the same as you. I live in West Berkshire in England and I am very frightened. Saw the consultant and Tuesday and was told of a 3.5cm tumour on my right adrenal. I now have to be referred to an Endocrinologist and a Surgeon. How was your surgery? Are you having Radiotherapy or any other treatment?
Please stay strong.

Kind regards

Hello Sandy,

DON'T BE SCARED !
If your right adrenal tumor turns to be a phaeochromocytoma, 90% of phaeochromocytomas are benign.
My phaeochromocytoma was benign, therefore I didn't go through any treatment, no Radiotherapy no treatment at all.

Your tumor could well be a phaeochromocytoma, and be benign.

I care very much about you !

Please keep me posted.

Kind regards,

Diana

Hi Diane
Just to bring you up to speed.
I went into hospital on Thursday 22 January and they removed my adrenal gland that morning by key hole surgery. I came home yesterday 23 January. Feel fairly well but tired. Not on any pain killers and not too uncomfortable. I won't know for three weeks what was in the adrenal gland so a while to wait yet.
Hope you are well and enjoying life.
Take care
