Cat Scan Shows a "tumor" on my brain.

Good luck man prayers sending your way hope all goes well

 

65 staples and 8 titanium screws to put me back together will do that

 

the doc's find out what's wrong and can fix the problem

 

Just seen the update Zack, thanks. Continuing prayers for you brother.

 

So last saturday night, I had the worst headache ever. lasted over 2 hours and put me on the floor. It hurt to breath, look, move, talk. I couldnt do anything. I dunno where that one came from. I put myself back on the meds and am going to get another MRI here soon.

 

Your in my thoughts. I wish you the best guy.

 

When I had an MRI done before Christmas they said they saw a cyst as well. When my wife spoke to the radiologist (wife works in the MRI) he said that actually alot of people have them and just don't know it and that it doesn't look abnormal. I would definitely look in to it though. There are a lot of treatment out there if it is something bad. I also originally went for headaches.

 

Praying for ya.......keep us posted.

 

Damn dude. Our prayers are with you.

 

Got another MRI done. It shows no new growth. So they are increasing meds trying to counter symptoms. I still think there may be something else wrong.

 

If you think there is something else wrong, don't take "no" for an answer. Keep pushing until you find out what is wrong.

Still for you

 

yeah I will. I go back in june for a followup on how tha additional drugs are working. I will push for better answers.

 

Definately continue to be in charge of your health. Always remember, they work for you. Continued prayers.

 

Prayers sent for you!!!

 

Damn, dude. Good luck.

 

You are in my thoughts.

When it comes to your health, you are your own best advocate. Based on what you are saying, I encourage you to get a couple more opinions. Don't stop pushing until you feel confident with the answers you are getting.

Be strong. Once you get through this, it will all just be a memory, and you can get on with your life. Thank you for sharing this personal matter, and keep us posted.

UPDATE: Went back to the neurologist. He said no growth, Doesnt seem to be anything wrong. He doesnt know why the meds I was on were not working. So he decided to knock me off of those and put me on a different one. This one is a daily one that seems to work great and the side effects are weight loss (always a plus). I go back on monday for a followup. I need to get a refill before my insurance runs out though. I got let go of my job on wednesday. So I still need your prayers.

 

Dang man, Sorry to hear about your Job on top of all of this. I had three cysts removed last week, they were all surface layer though. One of them on the back of my head was quite big, very glad they're gone.

Good luck with everything, if I prayed, I'd pray for ya, just know that you're in my thoughts.
