So my 11 year old son has been struggling his balance lately. He had one episode over summer and it has now been consistent since last Wednesday. He is sometimes able to walk ok and others he's walking like a drunk. His memory isn't as good and he's struggling to concentrate. He's had a mild headache and tummy ache too.
Last week the hospital said post viral. Yesterday they admitted him to do a fast mri.
We've been allowed home on 'leave' and I've had a call today to say they've found a cyst on his brain. They seem to think it's in a place that doesn't match with his symptoms. He's going back in Thursday to see the consultant and he will have an in depth mri with contrast dye in a few weeks time.
They don't seem to be rushing things or be overly concerned but my head is going wild.
My youngest had brain bleeds at birth that turned into cysts but they resolved within a few years.
Has anybody experience anything similar to my son with their children?
Please help calm me down xx
