@jeep Thank you for the follow-up on your pineal cyst journey the last 10 years. I've suddenly been experiencing dull headache, dizziness, mild blurred vision and nausea over the last 2 weeks. No one has been able to explain the cause and it is severely impacting my daily life. I had a brain MRI yesterday in the ER and it revealed a 8mm benign pineal cyst. I have a follow-up with neurology and a neuro surgeon one month from now (soonest I could be seen). Waiting that long for any type of answer is agony.

@jeep @uldiver @aggiegal @elsk @blewicki How large were your pineal cysts? I was told 8mm is very small by the neuro-radiologist who reviewed my MRI. My guess is the follow-ups are to discuss if this could be causing the symptoms and schedule another brain MRI to see if it is growing. From this thread, it seems like the doctor community at large doesn't really believe cysts can cause the symptoms, especially ones that small. I'm just struggling with what could be going on. To put it bluntly, these symptoms suck. Thanks for your insight.
