Hi Lizzy,
My symptoms with the arachnoid cyst were mostly constant headaches, pressure feeling in the head, dizziness, weakness, vision and balance problems, but mostly I had a migraine-like headache that never went away. The arachnoid cyst was eventually diagnosed with an MRI. A recent MRI has seemed to rule out hydrocephalus, thankfully...
I haven't really been much help, but I hope you are able to find some answers soon. I think you need to find the right doctor, preferrably a good neurosurgeon, and to have an MRI.

I just found a description of Episodic Ataxia too. Honestly I am grasping at straws at this point. Anyway, any help would be appreciated.
