She didn't really do much explaining except that it wasn't anything serious and wasn't the cause of my daily headaches. She had an MRI done on me which came out fine. I was just wondering, I have been getting my headaches back again quite often, and I was wondering if these cysts can grow?

Avatar m tn After a split from my ex wife who, on the occasion we had sex, pleasure was immense . I started dating a girl who had several kids, after a short while I noticed I wasn't really getting much physical pleasure from sex and put it down to her having a stretched Vagina and she was always very wet.

Avatar n tn They access your pineal region from beneath the brain, so they do not affect your brain at all. It sounds like a scary procedure but is actually straightforward for a good brain neurosurgeon. The surgeon essentially inserts a microscopic endoscope that magnifies the area by 50x and uses a navigation system to get him there. It is minimally invasive.

Consult your neurosurgeon for analysis of both the cysts including the one in the parietal region and the cerebellum. Depending on the large size and other pressure symptoms like headaches, nausea, blurred vision reflecting increased intracranial pressure, these would require a craniotomy and excision. Hope this helps. Take care.
Avatar n tn through the part of the tooth that shows, they had to split my gum and go into it directly through the root and fill it that way after cleaning out the infection. It required four stitches - the split in my gum was around three inches long which I found a little severe for one tooth root.
Avatar f tn I don't know about the shunt, but I do know that while ANY operation on the brain carries risk of some changes in mental agility, nevertheless from what I understand, cysts are so well-defined by being encapsulated, that the possibility of damaging nearby structures is minimal.
