I thought i might be done blogging....i guess i'm not

Today I sit on a 10 day countdown for my next surgery. As I suspected last April my second pituitary surgery was no successful and my endo referred me onto the next step.  A more permanent step, but one that is much more likely to put me into remission from Cushings.  I will be having a bilateral adrenalectomy, removed of the two adrenal glands sitting above the kidneys that produce cortisol.  I will forever be steroid dependent.  I have two brand new spakin' medic alert bracelets to prove it.

I am told recovering from this surgery and the crash of Cushings, once again, will take upwards of a year.  So I guess I'm not done blogging :)
