Pituitary Tumor

[Pitbull]

So 4 months back I was diagnosed with Ademous Pituitary Tumor (non cancerous) and started treatment, Nuclear radiation therapy and pills, I have been taking hormone pills like Betanoids which contains cortisol steroids. My concern is that those betanoid pills makes my face puffy and have gain tremendous weight (I look like a panda). So is there anyone who has been through this type of tumor and how did they lose those weight effects of the medication.

It's water retention.

Once you're off the roids for a while all the water will work itself out of your system.

The corticosteroids will contribute to weight gain especially puffiness.

But work through the treatment and get better soon!

Strongs to you bud.
