Hi! I have a serious problem. My doctor told me yesterday that a tumour damaged one of my adrenal glands. Probably I will need to go to surgery. Now I'm terrified. How could I live without one of my adrenal gland? I'm wondering are there any other treatments for my problem. Thanks!

There are various treatments for adrenal tumor. One of the most commonly used treatments is surgery. Also there are few types of surgery that can be performed to remove tumors. But radiation therapy is also a treatment option for some adrenal tumor patients. You can live with only one adrenal gland because you will take adequate medications.
