Paragangliomas

Paragangliomas

A paraganglioma is a type of neuroendocrine tumor that forms from a specific type of nerve cells called chromaffin cells.They perform important functions in the body including regulating blood pressure. When chromaffin cells become abnormal they can form growths (tumors). When the tumors happen in the adrenal glands they're called pheochromocytomas. When the tumors happen elsewhere in the body they're called paragangliomas. This type of tumor secrete adrenaline and other types of hormones. It is usually benign but the selected people can still die from stroke or heart attack due to continuous secretion of adrenaline Credits : https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/paraganglioma/cdc-20352970

First of tell you to go to the American diabetes Association s web site and read all about the 2 diff types 1 or 2. If 2 usually can be done away with wirh diet and at loss. Depending on how much you weigh. If that is the issue go to their website and download their diets. They have great things for diabetics that they didn't have 15 yes ago when I was diagnosed. However mine was from weight spook I lost the weight and the diabetes qentbye bye lol. Check their website tho. I'd try diet first before I'd try medications
