I just last week went to a neurosurgeon and had this discussion with her about removing them. Trying to get a new mri since have them in my thoracic spine and sacral area. It’s been a long time coming and now I’m at that point. Don’t know yet what will transpire. Wish me luck. I will let you know how things go.

@mfratt. Thanks so much for responding! Can you tell me how you came to know you had a Tarlov cyst and what types of symptoms you had?

Hi, I also have these cysts on my lower Cervical, Thoracic and lumbar spine. I am in agonizing pain and don’t find any specialist where I live in Quebec Canada to help me with it. I have been suffering from chronic pain and have been diagnosed with myofacial pain syndrome, torticolis, fibromyalgia, endometriosis…I would appreciate any insight since symptomatic Thoracic perineural cysts are rare.
