Hello,

Today i found out that a Ct that i had done shows a hyperdensity within the anterior left temporal fossa for which vascular or other lesion remains. I was wondering if anyone has ever had something like this and can tell me more about it. I was having terribel migrains for about 2 weeks when my doctor sent me for a ct. Now I have to go for an MRI. I guess i am just looking for more info as to what it could be. If anyone can help out i would greatly appreciate it.

Anyone have any ideas ?

Hi Jen ~ Back in July 2005 an MRI showed a lesion in my left temporal lobe so I think I know how you're feeling.
It's scary, isn't it?

But my situation was so different, I don't know or understand anything that you've talked about.
Do you have a neurologist or a doctor who will talk to you? Who will be reading the MRI films and discussing them with you? That's who will have the answers for you.
The best thing you can do is to take a family member, husband, dear friend, someone with you who can help you ask questions, take notes, things like that. You might be too nervous to remember things (I was) or ask all your questions so be certain you have someone with you who will.

I'll keep you in my prayers and I'll try to answer any questions if I can. Please return here and let us know how you're doing.

Hi, I have to make an appt. with a neurologist. Right now my primary doctor gave me the results of my ct. I know they have the answers I was just curious as to other people who have had them and what they turned out to be. As far as the description I gave I just copied it off the sheet. I work in a doctors office so it was easy to get a copy of the ct report. Thanks so much for responding.

Oh Jen! I'm glad you're back and I sure hope you keep coming back. When's your neuro appointment?
It was my neuro that sent me for the MRI that found all the "garbage" in my brain ..... that turned out to be a tumor, a grade ll oligodendroglioma, that was removed Feb., 2006. My seizures continued so I had another surgery May, 2007 and I haven't had a seizure since then. (I was told that the first surgery would remove the most minimal amount of tissue possible with high hopes that another surgery would not be necessary)
Brain surgery .... Wow, that sounds scary. And it IS but it is NOT as bad as it sounds.
But let's hope and pray you don't need it.

Hello,

Glad to hear your seizures have stopped since your last surgery! My neuro appt. if for Feb 13 and i go for my MRI Feb. 11. Glad i didnt have to wait to long to get in. I want to get these tests done and find out what is going on!
