Had to look that one up, had heard of it but was not sure what it really was.  No, my vision is great toward the center, so all is good on that front.  Thanks for the help though, one never knows all without input.  Hope your sleep was as good as mine, I feel much better.   Dani

One thing though, just before slipping into sleep last night I got the great idea of getting an early 'extra' prolactin test Monday morning before I have to show up for my surgery (the full spectrum blood tests are scheduled a few days after the surgery).  I've read that prolactin levels increase with stress.   I know this is in saying only but.....fingers crossed 

Just had that eye test repeated, she wanted to wait a week and redo.  One more Humphrey test and an Optic Nerve Scan were done today and............... NO INDICATORS OF PROLACTINOMA TUMOR!!!!!!!!!!!  Test was off I guess, and what it was showing was that I have the very beginnings of glaucoma, which my doctor and I already knew.  I can BREATHE.

Thanks for all who gave words of encouragement, it helped ALOT!   Dani

Wow, I am so happy for you.

Woo-hoo!  Congratulations! Hugs all around!

So happy for you Dani!!! <3 Omg! I just read this whole thread for the first time! What an emotional ride!

That's such wonderful news Dani, so happy for you

Hugs

**hugs** I'm very happy it worked out, Dani.

This is great news! I'm very happy for you!

NIIIIICE!!

Yay Dani!!!

You all are just too cool for words!!!!!!!!!!!!  You also put me right on that edge of tears point, which is certainly easier nowadays, but still not easy YET.

If that news was not enough, just after leaving the eye doctor I decided to eat 'a bit' outside my normal and go for a little fast food (my trans fat gene has not dropped the fat part yet  ).  Anyways I got a 'thank you ma'am' from a young girl when she gave my bank card back.  Icing on the cake.   Dani

Now that is a post for the happy thread or the knew you passed thread.  I'm glad it was only a scare and that you will be OK.
