First, I am all thumbs understanding how this site works. Any guidance around whether I should have started a new thread...or, should have engaged a different area of this site appreciated.
Hoping to start a conversation related to a recent incidental finding via CT scan. My wife was told she has what appears to be a colloid cyst 2cm x 4cm (rounded up, but not much). Neither of us has any medical background. After the CT scan she was sent for MRI w/contrast(?)...w/in two ours of the scan on Friday at noon, the physician's office called to tell her she had to schedule ASAP appt for Monday morning. I got home to find her in tears and scared to death. Waiting until Monday 7/1 for news of what is so urgent in MRI. Completely lacking knowledge about what she might face (and she will avoid internet, Google searches, etc.), just posting w/couple of questions and to see what kind of response I might find. Thank you. A. 2cm/4cm...do colloid cysts get any bigger? B. Can minimally invasive procedures be used for cysts this size? C. Anyone here have familiarity w/cysts of this size? Just trying to get the ball rolling, that I might have somewhere I can turn to after we leave the consult on Monday and a million new questions hit us... |
