Incidental Finding

I love those words! I took my films (both MRIs and the CTA) to a new neurosurgeon in Libertyville. He was a day late in calling back, but wonderful when he did! He said that it's likely that what was found on the scans is an enlarged blood vessel. Since it's tiny, I have no symptoms to associate with it, and it hasn't changed, he feels it's an incidental finding and I shouldn't worry about it.

I asked directly about getting pregnant, and he said I should forget anything was ever found. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders now. I never imagined being told this. What a rocky ride the past 8 months have been. Hopefully all will continue to be fine and I won't have to see any of these doctors again!
