Default MRI results - Pretty worried

Hi everyone,

A friend recommended I do this so here I am.

I just got some MRI results today and I must say I'm freaking out. They need to run more tests (two more MRIs with contrast dye - one in veins, other directly in arteries) and blood tests.

The results read as follow:

Soft tissue lesion in the central skull base anterior to the foramen ovale and probably involving the vidian canal. The possible differential diagnosis would include mucocele or nerve sheath tumor.

The doctor told me there was something wrong with my circle of Willis.

I don't speak doctor so it's hard for me to understand what it means exactly. The doctor is referring me to a neurosurgeon and they are scheduling the next tests urgently.

If anyone has any idea of what it all means or anything related to these results, I would really appreciate it.
