SCARED with MRI results

[dingusgirl]

Didn’t really know where to post but here since my other posts are here. Have vitamin D and B12 deficiencies and just got brain MRI results back. The nurse told me I have small cysts on the brain! Have no idea what that means or nothing about it. Going to neurologists appt in the morning at 10. If anyone has any experience or knowledge with brain cysts, please drop a reply. I’m freaking out and hoping it’s for no major reason. Thanks guys for reading. And please pray for me. Anxiety has really hit me.

dingus girl - not had MRI or any experience of brain cysts but may be this will help

generally non cancerous but can still cause problems - haven't read any further than that.

Possible that this post may help you with coping with the anxiety

Though I'm not a neurologist, I am a neuroscientist with some experience reading MRIs. While a cyst could indicate a problem, they are also very common in completely healthy individuals. Obviously your doctor will have a better idea, and the extent and locations of your cysts will also be important to consider, but I wouldn't worry too much. It's also quite unlikely the cysts are related to your B12/VitD deficiencies.
