I just read the post someone sent you that had no hope. My daughter was operated on two years ago at age 34 for her arachnoid cyst. Because the cyst got so large everything in her brain was being compromised...her arteries were hardly allowing blood to flow. Her internist said it was back problems. I insisted she get a script for an MRI and that is when they found the arachnoid cyst. Twelve days later she was operated on at Mt Sinai hospital in NYC. The operation was a success. Her symptoms prior to surgery were similar to yours. Recoup was hard but now her symptoms are mild and she says she feels like her life is back. Try to see a surgeon in a big city where they are more likely to have experience with this. My prayers are with you...there is hope out there...be persistent and do not give up.
