Besides the regular diagnosisfor lyme patients, the white lestions on brain from infectious/inflammatory disease..etc. has anyone had a pineal cyst on the pineal gland in the brain. Wondering if theres any relation to the depersonaliation I live in and the diagnosis of the mri and cyst.
Thanks.

I have one that is fairly large 8mm. when this first started the Dr thought it was causing my symptoms (dizziness, sensitivity to light, head pressure) Mine was found on Catscan in the ER. I had three neurosurgeons say it was nothing. Most Doctor's just say it is an incidental finding, however, if you google there are some that have had the cysts removed.

I read that fluoride is damaging to the pineal gland.... Maybe it's from drinking fluoridated water?

My husband, who is not dx'ed with Lyme, has a cyst on his pineal gland. He was told it was nothing and an incidental finding. He has always had trouble sleeping, so I am not convinced it is unrelated.
