temporal arthritis?

[hylander193]

Can you please tell me if you think that i should be concerned about what i think is a cyst on my left temple?  I have daily headaches on the left hand side of my head for the past 3 months, and occassionally the right too.  I also get alot of occular eye pain too.  I have been to see 3 opthalmopologists and they can't see anything.  I have also had a MRI done too.  The cyst has developed within the last week, so no doctor has seen it yet.

I would appreciate your advise.

And remember, you know your own body. If you believe something's wrong, don't stop until you get a clear diagnosis or until you're convinced of the findings!  Good luck. Sue

Sure, you go get it checked out. Don't want to mess with anything in that area. Also, I believe what you call temporal arthritis, is actually temporal arteritis. An inflammation of the arteries in the temple region. Good Luck. I hope you can get someone to find out what the cause of the headaches are.  If you're under a lot of stress...maybe that could be a culprit.
