When my tumor was first discovered it was wrapped around my right carteoid arterie causing dizziness and high blood pressure. I remember getting lost and confused alot. I also lost my eye site in my right eye.But that was a long time ago. It was so large they would not operate so I first took parlodel (bromocryptine) and then when it stopped working a few years back I had radiation teatments (about 50 over two months every day except weekends)and started taking dostinexs.
Been on it for 4 years now and gained about 45 lbs and can be moody as hell but all in all things are better.
I wish you all the best. It's good to know your not alone.
