Title: (now bad) good update on a former headache buddy
Post by Charlotte on Apr 4^th, 2011 at 10:58am

my coworker Dina had a pituitary tumor and had headaches very similar to my chronic ch. We shared ice packs, etc, at work.

She was treated with an oral medication and the tumor shrank although it is still there. She now no longer has headaches.

I just wanted to share the good news - no more headaches, and thank people who prayed for her.

Good news on her successful treatment, however it's another strong reminder that anyone with CH like symptoms really does need to be properly diagnosed with tests like MRI scans to rule out anything like this.

Some bad news. I am retired now but I just heard yesterday that Dina is off work with a fungus in her brain. I don't have any further details and not sure if that is correct, but I do know that Dina could use your prayers & was appreciative of them in the past.

thanks, Charlotte

Dina had a very hard time but is doing a little better and is back at work half days.

Thank you for praying for her.
