Roy, have you investigated treatment by a specialist in EEA (expanded endonasal approach) pit surgery? I am here for another problem, but happen to be a neuro ICU nurse in Pittsburgh. There is a doctor at UPMC named Amin Kassam and he has been known to work wonders. We frequently get cases from all over the world that others won't touch. It's certainly worth your time to investigate being treated or seen by him-he's sort of "the man" when it comes to this.
Hope this helps!
