Hi. My name is Emiray and im 18 years old. I had my pituitary gland tumour surgery 1 year ago. Before surgery, my biggest symptom was moon face, and it got worse and worse in the process of time. Now, even though it has been 12 months since the surgery, i still have moon face. It is improving, but very slowly. And im honestly sick of that. Has anyone experienced what im going through right now, and how long did it take for you guys to completely recover from your symptoms?

Note: My weight is normal right now, im 5'8 and i weigh 143 lbs. I exercise regularly.
