I am 29 years old and was diagnosed with an arachnoid cyst of the posterior fossa 2 months ago after having an "aura" with a migraine for 3weeks. My doctor ordered an MRI of the brain and found this. However he has said that these intense migraines are not related???? I also suffer from seizures for the past 12 years that have become as regular a 1 a week. I am still waiting to see a neurologist and my doctor has put me on medication to prevent migraines (although it does not seem to help). I have also had a lot of problems with loss of function in my arms and legs, also problems with sight, balance, weight gain due to nausea and speech impairment.
I am not sure where to go from here as my father had 3 strokes in a week n has had a lot of similar medical problems since 35 and my grandmother passed away in her early 30s from something in/on the brain (hard to find out for sure as grandfather has passed and not many details ever discussed whilst he was alive).
