"I have a huge pituitary tumor. They told me it was pressing on my sciatic nerve."
A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

I don't get it??
So his brain is in his ass?
Man that would be a HUGE tumor!
Go back to Biology class, then tell me how big it really is.

"Every time I sit down, I get an inch taller."
"Worst case of Recto-Cranial Inversion I've ever seen."
"His tumor's getting so big it's starting to look like a threemor." - J.D.
Sounds like tumor patient is related to extreme patient.
if its a MAN, his brain Usually is located in his ass......present company exluded OF COURSE hahaha
Maybe they could use a trans-rectal approach for surgery instead of trans-sphenoidal.
Well, I will leave the medical advice to the ones who have done med school, but as a human being with some knowledge of anatomy, this man has problems.
Big ones.
BTW, if you don't know, Google pitutary gland and see where you wind up. Minus 10 points if you have to do the same for the sciatic nerve.
OMDG, or his head is up his ass.
That is like the pituitary tumor that ate manhattan. The Godzilla of pituitary tumors.
This was exactly what I needed to read after the world's hardest pharmacology exam. Thanks!
Yep, that's huge alright!
I'm with Old Squid, his head must be up his ass for sure!
Wow... I'm just imagining the pituitary snaking all the way down to his sciatic nerve. That's one big tumor.
Genuinely impressive... but wouldn't the best medical solution be to advise him to remove his cranium from his rectum and call it good??
I had a confused elderly woman in my ED recently say: " My doctor got me to remember this and he said it's very important to say whenever I go into hospital. I only have two neurons, and they don't synapse properly."
For once a local doctor thinking of us in ED! The hard part was keeping a straight face.
