Hi all,

Unfortunately my aspiration didnt last. I had about 24hrs of noticable relief before feeling awful for a number of weeks, then having bladder issues again and following a CT scan discovered that the cyst had grown again but this time is bigger than before.

I am now awaiting a second aspiration and the neurosurgeon has instructed that an extra amount of fibrin is injected to try and help the cyst seal. If it is unsuccessful again Im in trouble as the surgeon has expressed his reservations to doing the surgery.

If anyone knows any surgeons confident and with a reasonable success rate in operating on TCs I would be very grateful to have their names. I need to be prepared in case this aspiration isnt successful. Locality of the surgeon is not an issue, we will deal with that once we know that someone would be willing to operate.

Thanks in advance.
