  • Great video :)

    Ive got an arachnoid cyst myself, a very large one that causes ALOT of pressure on my brain. In the past 2 years, ive had 15 brain surgeries due to broken and malfunctioning shunts, complications and infections.

    Its hard to live with at times, but when the shunt is working nicely, you dont even notice its there :)

    Feel free to watch my videos on my story. Still have to update but will get there one day. Jade x
