Ok so i am a 22 year old female. I was diagnosed with a pineal gland cyst in February of this year. Well they toled me not to worry about i and to come abck in feb. 2009 to have another MRI to evalutate the cyst to see if its growing. While over the last month i have been getting migranes every once in a while and if i dont have migranes then my head has so much pressure that i feel like my brain is going to explode out of my head. I went to my Primary Physician today and he is referring me back to my nuerologist because he thinks that my cyst is causing my headaches. I also went to the optomologist today and i use to have better then 20/20 vison but know my vison is getting really poor and he said that he could give me glasses right know but they werent really bad so didnt have to have them if i didnt want them. Ok so my big thing is i think they might end up doing surgery and i was wondering if anyone could give me insite on how things went for them. Like how long they spent in the hospital? How long it took for them to get back to work. Any insite will really help. I am really nervous because me and my husband just bought our first home and our first car with a payment and we really cant afford to have me off work to long. That and i have a 13 month old daughter so i have a real busy life. SO if anyone can help feel free to contact me Thanks so much in advance for any help!!

Did you end up having surgery for your pineal cyst?
