Need answers on colloid cyst plz...
 
I know I'm new to this discussion forum. I am a 28 year old man who was diagnosed with a colloid cyst, last sunday. I have an appt with a nerosurgeon on tuesday. My cyst was measured at 8 millameters (spelling?). I'm looking at s.urgrey and don't know what to expect. I'm wanting to find out what size is the typical size when the doctors say it has to be removed. As well as how much time is average time spent at the hospitle. I am a happley married man with 3 wonderful boys with one of them 100% dissabled, I am the only 1 working so my wife can be a stay at home mom as she wants to be. I need to prepare as much as I can finacily as possable.

And to tell the truth, I am terrified of what can happen. I've done and will contune researsh, I know sudden death is a possablity. I am a semi truck driver for fed ex ground. I'worked extreamly hard to get this wonderful job doing what I love and being able to be home every night. But, if I have to take more than 2 months off, I will have to be replaced. Does anyone know the average recovery time? Oh, the cyst is in my brain so I know that brain surgery is serious. Please help...
