I also rec'd this diagnosis thru an MRI this month. The MRI was a follow up to determine if a colloid cyst had grown and was causing my headaches and neck pain. The cyst was previously found by cat scan. Like others here I was also told it was nothing of concern. Interestingly the cyst doesn't even show on the MRI. I am already being treated by a neurologist for essential tremor. Plan to research further and discuss with him. FYI I am female and have had weight problem at times in my life but certainly not obese.

Hi @mineolap2, welcome to Connect.
What are the next steps for you to get relief from the headaches and neck pain?

Due to vision issues my opthomologist ordered several vision tests. Heard today the results were abnormal and I'm being referred to a neuro opthomologist. Findings said "suspicious for process affecting the optic chasm". Not sure what it means but hope to get appt soon.

mineolap2 - While it's never great to hear that test results are abnormal, at least you have something to investigate and hopefully this will lead to solutions. Best of luck and keep us posted.
