Well, the good news is my brain is fine. The bad news is, right at the base of the scans where they were about to cut off the scan area, they found a cyst about the size of a small finger nail in circumference, in my sinus cavity.

They were not able to tell if it was just some infection type of cyst filled with puss or if it was cancerous. Since it is not brain related, I have to go back tomorrow to see the eye, ear and throat specialist. They will have to test it to see what it is exactly.

There is a lot more little details than that, but those are the cliff notes.

Thanks for all of the input on this. I appreciate it. The CT was easy peasy. As Paul had warned me, the only icky part about it was getting the dye injected into my body. It was very cold, like someone was shooting cold water into my arm. Odd sensation.

It will either show the problem or reveal there is none. Delaying it is the biggest danger.
