Pineal Cyst



Well, I had REALLY hoped to have an informative post and update for you today on my very own pineal cyst, but alas ... we don't always get what we hope for! As many of my regular readers may remember, an MRI last September showed a 12mm pineal cyst, lesion, tumorous nodule, pineocytoma, THING in the middle of my brain.

There is so much scary information on the internet about large pineal cysts ... I really was worried that I was simply going to drop dead. The good news is: I'm still alive! YAY me! The frustrating news is: the doctors keep telling me it is just a "coincindence" that I have this *thing* in my brain, and that it is not actually causing my symptoms. I find that REALLY hard to believe. Several doctors have suggested that I have multiple sclerosis instead, but there is no "for sure" test to prove that.

So it has been my goal for the last six months to get back on the Flat Belly Diet and just really work hard on eating right and exercising and stop worrying about my brain.

Epic Fail.

Therefore ... in honor of the letter R ... I will try out a new Flat Belly Diet Recipe and post my opinion about it with the R (for recipe) post.

Then, if and when, I have any pertinent news, regarding my brain, to update you with ... I will. *sigh*

Go eat some healthy brain food today!
