Pain point above right eye- neurological problems resulting
Hi,-
I was wondering if you think it's a reasonable request to ask for a test to be done to clarify the most troublesome bump on my forehead right above my right eye- it feels like an artery or vein that funnels into my right eye- and the right eye is where I had my first excruciating pain leading to my first seizure.
The pain comes on and the bump seems to get larger and I often have neurological problems crop up then.
I have a myriad of neurological problems with my Cranio-cervical Instability and Settling, Tethered Cord, Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Mitrol Valve and Tricuspid Valve regurg. (post heart surgery) and a hole in my heart as well as Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia.
If you think a test is reasonable, what test would best reveal what is going on? I have had CAT scans in the past- that show nothing about my several head/facial cysts.. MRI's reveal a lot- but nothing about what's going on in the frontal lobe of my skull/brain and nothing in the soft tissue. My eyesight is doubled at times and I often have dialated pupils. I also notice that my eyes don't line up just right- one strays off - (part of the double vision?)
-ps. this area I'm describing is more painful without my glasses with prisms in them to help my double vision-
I apologize for the lack of clarity in my question-
But thanks anyway!

Hi zoe,
It certainly sounds like a reasonable request and I really want to help, but, I am unable to answer your questions because it really cannot be answered online. These types of questions, concerns and diagnosis' can be provided only by a doctor after they do a full medical workup and exam, which also includes a family history as well.
It sounds like you're going through a rough time. If you'd like some additional support, come join our discussion forum.
