I'm going to be having a total left knee replacement surgery in early February so I may not be around so much for a while. My surgeon knows I need extra steroids. I've started blogging about this at https://maryomedical.com/2022/12/21/bees-knees-pre-tkr/

And, although this was supposed to be today, this has been rescheduled for March 9

I have your doctor's info for the Helpful Doctor's list but haven't had a chance to format it yet for the list. Sorry
You can amend or update your bio by using the same form - https://cushingsbios.com/2018/10/28/we-have-a-new-bio-form/ - and checking the box "Is this an update to a past bio?"
When you check yes, a box will pop up to enter the URL of your bio. In your case, you'd enter https://cushingsbios.com/2019/05/19/lili-undiagnosed-bio/

Yes, You Need a Medical Alert Bracelet!
#3– DO NOT MAKE IT “PRETTY” OR “NOT SO OBVIOUS”. I can not stress this enough. Ladies I know that you want the cute ones that look like normal bracelets, and have pretty charms, etc on them… THE ENTIRE point of a medical alert bracelet is that someone needs to see it and know that they should look at it. If it looks like a regular bracelet or regular necklace and it isn’t obvious within the first 3 seconds once we get to you and look in the obvious places (neck/wrist). it will NOT get seen. I promise you, we are too busy trying to play the guessing game of why you are not responding, than to take a look at every single piece of regular jewelry and see if it might have a really small inscribing of what is wrong with you. Once again. Make it noticeable. We will see that we need to look at it. Once we do. The guessing game is more than likely OVER. and we can begin to treat you appropriately.

I have not been on these boards in a few years. My status is stable and now on daily Cortef replacement due to stressful divorce, hypothyroid, hypopituitary....God Bless Dr F. who keeps me living my best quality of life. I never thought every day would be a new science experiment....but.....at least I'm 18 years post adrenalectomy / coma and 10 years post thyroidectomy and still enjoying life and family! Thank you Mary for these boards which back in 2000 were the only source of support and education there was for a patient like me. I joined them in 2000 and again in 2004. I will always be grateful for the sense of normalcy and belonging I found on this web site. I work from home now and have a great life! To all of you just starting the journey......DONT GIVE UP....LIFE IS WORTH LIVING AND YOU MATTER...With the right Drs on your team and these boards you can live your best life. Educate yourself and be proactive. Be strong and please don't be afraid to ask questions or ask for help......Blessings Lynn in Oregon

Just a personal update to keep track of things.
As far as testing for PCOS goes I had an ultrasound of my pelvic area yesterday, and some blood tests (various ovarian/pituitary hormones plus vitamin D) this morning. Will wait for results and see what my GP says soon hopefully!

I'm very new to this site, but one of the first things I did was read through your story. It's inspiring to see how many people's lives you touched, and heartbreaking to read through what happened during your last few months. I hope you are at peace, and I wish you a very happy birthday!

Not sure how this profil feed works, but I thought I would make a post... I am post 5 months post pit surgery and 1month post gamma knife radiation. I had 7mm residual tumor in my cavernous sinus cavity. Still having all symptoms but, they told me it would be slow. Slow is ok just as long as its a cure.

Stop with the bikini pics. It's nice to love yourself, but this is ridiculous. @KimKardashian
