So, yesterday morning Punkin and I sat in the neurosurgeon's office armed with a page and half of questions. I started off explaining my concerns about the compatibility of MRI monitoring of cyst and cochlear implant. The neurosurgeon stopped me.
"There is no cyst"
Me: "I am confused- how can this be?"
Neuro: "What appeared to be a cyst on MRI is actually the spinal-fluid filled hole where your tumor was removed. A mistake was made in how the scan was read."
Me: "How can you be so certain?"
He went on to draw a diagram and explained at length how and why he was certain. Both Houston and I were convinced.
Me: "So you do you feel comfortable with me forgoing these MRIs?"
Neuro: " I do. We can monitor with blood work and CTs. Go for the cochlear"
What a confirmation. We are meeting with the implant doctor on September 9th to discuss surgery dates.
"Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen."
