Had a CT scan this afternoon, Doc who looked at the results strongly suggested emergency surgery consultation. I don't know if anything is happening tonight.
Per chart:
Obstructive hydrocephalus secondary to cerebellar/caudal fourth ventricle mass as described above. Urgent/emergent surgical consultation is recommended. Contrast enhanced MRI brain exam is recommended to further characterize the mass.
I have a ton of support, just wanted the faithful to know.

Good luck op, hate the call after a scan, at least they caught it and you’ll get hospital care, hope it’s easily taken care of

Keep your sense of humor, it does help, may be just a clot that they can dissolve

Oh that's not great.  But *hopefully * a straight forward fix. Good luck

I can't efficiently tell you'll individually how much I appreciate your prayers. I know not everyone here is a Christian, but I am. For the infidels, I appreciate your thoughts and support.
Some may know I'm a hospice chaplain, it's a good work. Tell your family you love them and don't be shitty to those who are in your care.

You are a tough MF OP. I can tell from your attitude.
That will serve you well.

Praying for the best possible intervention and outcome.
Hospice chaplain? (edit) That explains some things.

Praying harder.

I’ve probably had more than a dozen patients over the years with similar presentations. Came in with head aches and vision changes. Typically I send to ER but rarely immediately life threatening. I’m fairly sure every one of them is still kicking. Modern medicine can fix a lot. Best wishes OP]

And prayers!
