Dear User ,
in case of pituitary gland tumors most cases are prolactimona which responds will to medical treatment , bout other tumors of the pituitary usually responds will to surgical intervention. i can not tell you to go into surgery just by reading your question and answering it . it would be wise if you can contact an experienced neurosurgeon on the subject and he will be able to more difinite about it. please contact your doctor and get help hoping to gain your previous life back , and looking for answers is a great thing you did . get help and get better.
best regards ,
