But now it seems I have Occipital Neuralgia, originating from the cyst operation, which damaged the Occipital nerves!
Just my luck...

have been having migraines for past few yrs - getting worse and more frequent and lasting longer. Also have associated neurological features - numbness, tingling, and speech is difficult and a bit slurred.
Have over past month had days when i sleep abnormal amounts!
I had a scan MRI - which showed a "possible intradiploic arachnoid cyst".
Am waiting for a neurosurgery appointment now .
was very shocked at the results appointment and asked very little.
Please tell me what to expect?
would rather know what's likely and be pleasantly surprised??
