Thornwaldt Cyst
Posted: 10-03-07 23:24pm

Has anyone here ever heard of this type of cyst. I also have an arachnoid cyst in brain, last MRI they discovered the thornwaldt cyst. From what I have found they are rare, but I am wondering if anyone has had any experiece with it. I have massive headaches and dizzness, now I wonder if it's the arachnoid cyst or combination of both.

Thanks for any and all replies.

Hey, it's nice to know you're not alone. No actually they haven't done anything with mine. I had more pressing issues; I'm 40 and had open heart surgery in Jan of this year. So I'm still dealing with they cysts in my head and also trouble with the surgery. What are the doctors telling you about yours. I never followed up with a specialist, I'm actually waiting for my disability. Hope you are doing o.k. feel free to email anytime also.

Sincerely,
Lisa
