Hi Jabra,

And a belated Welcome. Sorry, my eyesight didn't allow me to see the Colloid Cyst Icon lit up. Anyway, I'm sure you can trust your Doctor over this Cyst. At least s/he has you down to look at it again next year. In my case, with an expanding Arachnoid Cyst, my idiot Neuro won't discuss it at all.

Try not to worry about it and wait til next year to see if there is any change.

Dave.

Thank you dave. I am worried about the symptoms that I have, such as the fevere and painful headache that I had in the right side of the head. Is it typical to have pain in one side of the head in a colloid cyst? Also the most powerful headaches where nearly always at night and they used to wake me up.

Hi Jabra Taweel,
Welcome to NeuroTalk.

Are you still having the fever and pain now?

Scroll down to Colloid Cyst on the pdf
http://www.abta.org/secure/resource-...eets/cysts.pdf

If you're having such terrible pain and also a fever, I would be concerned about the build up of pressure.
I don't have a Colloid Cyst so I'm just going on what I do know and have read.

Hi Jabra,

With the headaches and fever I would go back to your Doctor and get thoroughly checked out. You always have to be careful. It may be unconnected, but it is best to be sure.

If you are still not happy, please seek the opinion of another Doctor.

Do you take any pain killers for the headaches, and are they effective? How long do the attacks last?

Wishing you well,

Dave.

I agree with Dave.

It's much better to be checked out again. Maybe you'll need to be more persistent with your doctor.

btw, there is also a Hydrocephalus Forum here and perhaps the members who visit there might know if your symptoms of fever and headache could be related to build up of pressure.
