why does it always have to be me?

Jul 17, 2008 01:04PM - 3 comments

I am a 29 year old mother to 3 beautiful girls ages 12, 4, and 2. I have been having some medical issues that noone would take seriously. for hte last year or so, i was having these seizure like episodes during or right after intercourse. i didnt think i was the only one to have this happen so i started to go to doctors. one doctor told me that she refused to be my doctor and told me to find someone else who thought i was being serious. well i did, and after a few eeg's and mri's i was told i have a cyst on my right frontal lobe and a mass of some sort on the left temporal lobe!! i am scared and freaked out at the same time. i have to have another mri with contrast to determine what the mass is. i want to know why me? i am young and simimgly healthy i have 3 beautiful children and i am getting married this fall. I just dont understand this..i feel lost and alone?? i try not top think negatively, but hell who wouldnt? i cant sleep at night and i seem to be in a daze all the time now.....someone please tell me it will be ok!!!!!!!!

Hi marie,

I'm so sorry this happened to you.  Try not to worry too much.  It's actually good that they found something because it can probably be treated.  Cysts can be very common.  I have a friend who was getting dizzy and blurry vision and she found it was a cyst on her pituitary gland.  It's not cancer or anything.  But she was scared.  You are young and probably otherwise healthy, which is a plus.  Trust that the doctors know what they're doing and will advise you.  All you can do is get the other mri and go from there.

I will pray for you.  I'm sure it will be OK!

Hi again,

Also I forgot, I don't know how I could have forgotten this:  My husband had kidney stones and he went for a routine x-ray and they found a huge cyst on his liver.  The doctor said it was as big as a grapefruit!  So the pain in his back and pelvis was not even from the kidney stones, it was the cyst!  He is going to a specialist to see about getting it out or what he should do. When he asked if it was cancer, the doctor said well it's so big that if it was cancer he would not be here right now!

I hope this gives you some encouragement.  Take care.

I get so angry when I hear of someone being treated so badly by Dr's who are supposed to be there to help and heal. I am so sorry this has happened to you and wonder if your and your husbands Dr';s have thought of why you both have cyst?
