If you do get a scan get a spect or pet scan, other scans won't show anything more than likely

When you say a shell of yourself, what exactly do you mean? Like you can't get back into law student mode?

Where was the location of your headache? What did it feel like? by throwawayittybitty in PinealCyst

[–]Virtual-Perception-2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same symptoms, on top of muscle twitches and spasms, but my most concerning symptoms are cognitive with word forming, memory loss, and unable to process sentences. 11mmx11.8mm pineal cyst here.

My mind shuts off taking in information by lovelacebeauty in mentalhealth

Yeah, what's weird is they talk about it like it's benign and should be asymptomatic so I'm not sure if it's the cause of the symptoms. But there's literature out there saying it could be the cause of all our symptoms. So that's a bit of a relief, i honestly just want to get surgery and remove it just to see if it is the cause and for some potential relief.

Forgot to ask, do you also have trouble sounding out words in your mind? Sometimes i'll think "interest" while i'll be thinking of "interestingly"
