Hello. I have been having intense headaches and dizziness, numbness and tingling, and "brain fog". I had an MRI done and there is an arachnoid cyst located towards the front right side of my parietal lobe. It is 5.8 cm x3.8 cmx 2.7cm, that is an increase from 5.1 x 2.8 x 2.4 two months prior. I see a neurologist in January but the doctors in the ER said they didn't think it was what was causing my symptoms. I don't know what to do or who to consult at this point.

Hello @em87, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. You are already taking the first step. You are being an advocate for your own health. I would be have the same concerns as you do. You mentioned the doctors in the ER said they didn't think it was what was causing your symptoms and you have an appointment with a neurologist in January. Are you able to talk to the neurologist and possibly move up your appointment based on your latest MRI results? Also that the doctors in the ER didn't think that was causing your symptoms?

@em87 have you found anyone yet who will connect your symtoms to cyst?

This is the original CT. According to my MRI it is larger now.
