A member asked:
I have an arachnoid cyst&get complex migraines very frequently past eeg has shown narrowing of the ventricles in my brain, are they caused by the cyst?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably unrelated: Many normal people have arachnoid cysts. Many normal people have narrow ventricles on ct or mri. These are incidental and unrelated findings. Migraine is a physiological reaction to stress. It sounds that the cyst and ventricle issues are unrelated to your migraine.
