Title: Just Out of Curiosity!
Post by parrothead on Jan 29^th, 2003, 9:30pm

I've have recently been diognosed with a cyst on my Pineal Gland. The Pineal Gland is a gland in center of the brain and regulates melatonin. This was found after my Neurologist odered an MRI. I've been told by doctor that there is no relation between my CH and the cyst. However, I've read many testimonials of people who have these cysts that they also suffer from migaine headaches and "migaine like" headaches.

Moreover, as the Pineal gland reguates the melatonin, I've also read where low melatonin levels can cause clusters and migraines.

Has Anybody out there been diagnosed with this condition or know anything about it? I would really like to know!
