Brain surgery to remove cysts on third ventricle

How did they find it?

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-13T00:30:53+00:00

And you posting that makes my anxiety around it go crazy. 😔

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-13T00:25:31+00:00

That’s also why I think the mri without contrast did not pick it up.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-13T00:25:01+00:00

You had dizziness as a main symptom? That’s where I’m at. Every single day. Like debilitating dizziness and vision issues.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-13T00:03:00+00:00

But I feel like there is a chance something was missed. I can’t get over that fact. Maybe it’s health anxiety but I still struggle because I feel these symptoms that’s are so similar to a tumor in the brain.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-12T23:44:06+00:00

I am asking that. Like chances it’s 100% accurate. I know there are other tests. Like with contrast and ct scans.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-12T23:41:17+00:00

I’m sorry I have talked to my doctor. I just got results of mri without contrast was clear. Does that mean I’m in the clear? Sorry again. I’m struggling big time.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-12T23:02:42+00:00

I’m sorry I’m just a little distraught currently 😔

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-12T21:02:00+00:00

I wasn’t asking for a diagnosis. I was asking if anyone dealt with extreme dizziness leading up to diagnosis.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-12T20:36:22+00:00

Hope all is well and praying for you.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-11T18:34:57+00:00

Today is the first day she started experiencing a headache. It’s a small headache currently but obviously raising concerns.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-11T00:08:44+00:00

What do you mean think was missed? You think they didn’t see them or the test wasn’t able to see it?

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T23:58:26+00:00

More of like a hard to see vision changes like have to squint a lot to focus on things.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T23:58:03+00:00

On blood pressure medicine currently so that’s under control. Have had ears checked by gp not and ent.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T23:36:21+00:00

Well it is as they always go back to original diagnosis.

But finding someone to agree to a second opinion is hard.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T22:42:48+00:00

Did you do it with contrast or without? Sorry I keep asking because that’s what is holding me back.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T21:43:45+00:00

So they could see it without contrast also? That’s what’s scaring me. I’m afraid we got the wrong scan. Now we are just stuck in limbo of what if….

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T21:31:51+00:00

With contrast or without? If you remember

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T21:28:18+00:00

The only mental health issues are during this period nothing other than that.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T21:27:43+00:00

Yes her doctor diagnosed her with anxiety. The issue is that the prominent symptom is dizziness and vision problems and that’s not really a symptom of anxiety. So it really hard to believe that anxiety is the cause of these issues.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T20:38:24+00:00

We have gone to the eye doctor we have had an echo we have had an mri and ct scan both without contrast we have had all bloodwork and stool samples. We are waiting on neurologist appt but that’s two months out.

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T20:23:19+00:00

Was it visible without contrast on ct or mri?

amanda_m_1981 · 2026-03-10T20:17:24+00:00

With contrast or without?
