@mjp, ependymal cysts are quite rare from my understanding. You must've been relieved to hear in June that it has shrunk by 50%. Delays due to COVID are happening in health care systems across the nation. I would follow up with the referring physician and resubmit the requisition.

How are you managing your symptoms? Which one causes you the most concern?

I asked my family doctor for a referral for pain management back in February, I followed up last week and it was never sent out, very frustrating...so still praying for an answer, in the meantime relying mainly on essential oils (peppermint, past tense,...) for headaches/migraines, massage therapy also helps. My symptoms have been getting worse with the temperature changes the last couple of weeks, my brain does not like the cold weather anymore!
