okay so i know nobody likes going first so i thought since i made this spot I'll have the first moan lol
my problem is actually quite unique although i know some of anda out their will be able to relate to it
actually to be lebih specific how unique my problem is under 50 people in the UK have it
as for what it is, well it has some fancy medical term for which i would have to go and look up but in lamens terms i have a tumor that has been growing since birth in the middle of my brain. Which trust me does sounds a hell of a lot worse than it is and fortunately it's not cancerous (well they're 99.9% sure it's not anyway)
now even though it's being growing since birth it only started to effect me a couple of years yang lalu as it's still about the size of a marble. The problem is it's gotten to be a possible threat and they may have to operate the options are
operate and risk a 9% chance of dying or
don't operate and probably go blind (the doctors aren't really sure about this so there's a chance i might not)
this may sound familiar to some of anda as i tried to make a pick about it to help me decide lol

at the moment though i am awaiting some lebih tests and it's not that urgent as i have a couple of years before it will start affecting my eyes so i can keep ignoring it till then but it keeps pressing on the back of my mind (excuse the pun) so any komentar on what anda guys would do in my shoes would be so helpful!
i thought i might just tell anda why i put the judul as Tina the tuna
my tumor was quite infamous at school as one of my friends could not say tumor but keep saying tuna instead (was even funnier when she asked the lunch lady for a tumor sandwich) and so instead of keeping confusing the poor girl we decided to name her Tina it was easier for my friend to say and i think it makes it easier for most people to talk about it as it makes it sound less well less clinical
anyways I'm sure most of anda had already figured out that I'm not quite right in the head but now anda know why and hopefully this will encourage lebih people to share and post their problems :)
