Advise see ...: I advised that you see a specialist, one that is known for dealing with seizures. I am not certain as to what type of cyst you have, so i cannot really comment on that.

?idiopathic: I seriously doubt that the cyst is the cause of your seizures, but I am concerned that these are not in control. We have over 20 anti-epileptic drugs, and you may benefit from a very different regimen. Would recommend you have this evaluated by your local medical school department of neurology. This can come under far better control.
