Hello @kyoto,

It has been a while since you last posted. Are you continuing to feel the benefits of the surgery you had a couple of years ago? I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I am really well. The symptoms are almost gone. The specific problem of working memory disruption is completely under control with the anti-convulsant medication, which I take twice a day. It is odd to describe yourself as having to take "anti-convulsants", but the alternative of having these silent epileptic seizures is much worse. The cyst is gone, and apparently there is no reason to worry that it may return, according to the doctor. Occasionally, I get severe headaches that do not respond well to regular painkillers, and at those times, I begin to worry a bit, but they go away again. Functionally, which is the important thing, I am absolutely fine.
How are you?
