The neurologist Warren saw Monday mailed a letter to him and a neurosurgeon in Redwood City recommending surgery!!! He also filled out the forms to have Warren's new MRI sent to the outside-the-HMO neurosurgeon (in case the HMO guy won't operate).

A friend I made through the arachnoid cyst mailing list just had hers fenestrated in February. She describes the "before" situation as "like trying to think in a tunnel" and is much pleased with the results.

I'm sure there is some permanent damage, but what I'm seeing on the MRIs is a brain that's being more pushed out of the way than totally crushed.
