Good luck!

My Neurologist is in contact with my original Neurosurgeon (both are at the same hospital), and will consult with him. But for now, they don't seem worried about it, considering I've never had any hydro symptoms for over 10 years after my cyst surgery, and these symptoms I have now are just recent. I can go back anytime if the symptoms worsen, and get an MRI fairly quickly. But for now, they have lessened a bit. Mild symptoms can be treated without surgery, so I'm told, unless they get worse. So, they won't do any surgery unless it's really necessary...and I hope it never comes to that, once is enough!
