Please ask your doctor to request a flexion/extension MRI. These are much different. Umm for me, just as a heads up...it was extremely painful, as you hold weights and lean your head/neck in different positions. Which is why they are able to finally see the pseudotumor because as we know this little effer likes to play hide and seek. I did try to not hold the weights because it was excruciating but they insisted.
Please, please make sure if you do go in for surgery that the MRI is no older than 3 months hopefully even less! As we know these can grow very slow but they also have growth spurts and seem to grow overnight sometimes.
