Bénédicte testimony- 20 years of Androcur- 1 meningioma

Androcur testimonies

Bénédicte testimony

I would like to give my testimony to what happened to me. I live in the Bordeaux region. Entry into the emergency room of Pellegrin hospital on the night of Thursday to Friday (January 10-11, 2019), I had to be made with a meningioma (about 5 cm in diameter) from the following Saturday around 10 am. In the alarm clock, the surgeon who took care of my operation asked me if I took medication, and having said: "Androcur for at least 20 years", he himself replied that he was the cause of this meningioma. Three other small meningiomas of a few millimeters have also been formed, but not annoying and therefore unpaid. During my hospital stay, chatting with the surgeon, he told me that the urgency of the operation was essential because the vital prognosis was engaged. So, if I had not called 112 (twice in the same night: first speaker, a doctor who prescribed two drugs, telling me that my unbearable headaches were going to pass; second stakeholders, after headache and vomiting: paramedics who therefore transported me to the emergency room, phew!), I could perhaps not bring you my testimony! I stayed at the hospital until Friday, January 18. I had a four-week work stoppage prescribed by the surgeon, then extension of the judgment by my attending physician, because there was the death of my mother in March 2019, preceded by a difficult situation compared to her state of health (neuro-degenerative disease, stays in different hospitals, nursing homes, etc.). I resumed my part -time therapeutic work at the end of March. But I have been on full stop since December 2019 (reaction depression due to the operation, accentuated by the situation linked to my mother).
This is a succinct summary of this adventure !!!
Thank you for allowing me to provide my testimony, which apparently added to a long list ...
if I can also bring my little stone to the building ...
Thank you for your commitment.
