Pineal Cyst

Pineal Cyst, Pineal Lesions.
Okay so I have a pineal lesion. It is approximately 6mm in size and I have been having horrible vertigo, dizziness, balance problems, heavy pressure in my head, vision disturbance, and pain around the back of my head.
This all started in 2002. I was misdiagnosed by almost every doctor. Finally Dr Hrayr Shahinian of Skull Base Institute in Los Angeles told me he was 99% sure that the cause of my symptoms was the pineal cyst. He wants to wait and see .. he says he will operate if it grows to be 10 mm. Obviously I can't wait that long. But I respect him and I think once he understands the severity of my symptoms he will operate on me NOW.
But anyway, if you have a pineal lesion or any brain problems, I highly recommend Dr. Hrayr Shahinian. He is #1 NueroSurgeon to ever walk on the face of this planet.
Also check out this.. www.savemissy.com - a website on a woman who just had an operation by Dr. Hrayr to have a pineal cyst removed.
