Hi, my name is Amanda and I am created this go fund me page for my wonderful Aunt Brandi. On Monday, June 28, 2021 Brandi went to the ER with a terrible headache that she had been enduring for several days.
Once admitted, the doctors found swelling on the pituitary gland which lead them to transport her to the MU hospital in Columbia where she has had:
- Blood drawn
- EKG
- Chest x-rays
- MRI
- A trip for eye test because the swelling affected her vision.
She was kept in ICU overnight for monitoring, and met with a neurosurgeon and endocrinologist. The team found a 2 cm tumor on her pituitary gland that they believe is benign which is causing her headaches.
Unfortunately, the MU hospital is not in Brandi’s insurance network. The purpose of this fund is to help offset the overwhelming cost of medical expenses accrued thus far. Please consider donating.
