I sent a message to my neurologist through the hospital portal to inform him of these results (testing done at another facility)...he just said "it could be genetic", which I understand can be. I will be seeing him in person next month for my usual check up. I had a concussion in 2019 which kicked off terrible migraines, never had them before and still have them on occasion today, that's why I see him. To my breast oncologist this finding is new information, she is in a different hospital portal system so she has nothing to compare this finding to. I checked back to my old CT scans and brain MRIs, from 2019 to present ordered by my neurologist...it's never on such reports except once in a 2020 MRI/MRA where it actually says "posterior fossa: no tonsil present."
So, it seems to me since 2020 to the present 2026 - at some point - this happened to my brain? A "tonsil" developed in my cerebellum?
Concerning to me and not sure exactly what this means...
Thank you for your thoughts.
