A member asked:

I have an 8mm pituitary tumor. could it be the cause of problems with balance or vertigo ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pituitary: Yes it could be a cause of concern but it would not surprise if the balance or vertigo is unrelated to the pituitary tumor. Hope all goes well - please keep me informed.
