Default Tarlov Cyst

I see you are in Oregon! I too am in Oregon and have no clue if there is a doctor here that really knows what they are talking about when it comes to this. My first "specialist" basically quit on me because I didn't just want to take pain meds so I got a second opinion and wala, just found the cyst. I am honestly scared to death. Im only 34 and have a busy life, full time job and an 8 yr old daughter. It is affecting every aspect of my life. The pain is awful. I try to cope and push through but I am getting to the point I don't want to get up in the mornings. I have to make myself get up and fight to live a normal life. I don't see anyone posting the size of their cysts. Mine is 1.2 cm which seems to be small compared to others that I have seen on sites.
Any helpful info for me? I just found out Friday and haven't even talked to my doctor yet. I got the MRI results and decided to google doctor myself. lol so now I'm in full panic mode. lol
