Help me get Pineal Cyst Removal Surgery!

Hi there, my name is Ella, and I have had a constant headache for 14 years. I am 26 years old. I cannot remember life without pain. Any funds raised will cover the surgery expense, hospital stay, plane tickets, hotel room and food for the stay.

The success rate for this procedure is 93% total or partial symptom recovery. 1% mortality rate. 10% chance of lasting disability that may heal with time. I like those odds. -source

My symptoms are constant headaches so bad I can't think straight (painkillers do not work), memory issues (I can barely remember my own life), problems with sleep, and chronic fatigue which all negatively affect my quality of life.

The pain is caused by a Pineal Cyst. Pineal cysts are relatively common, 1-2% of the population has one, but it is not common that they cause symptoms. Few doctors on this planet even believe they do cause symptoms, which is why it took me 11 years to get properly diagnosed.

I need Pineal Cyst Removal Surgery if I am ever to experience a pain free day again. I have found two European surgeons who can perform this surgery and believe I am a good candidate for it.

My symptoms are debilitating and I cannot get paid employment thus cannot afford this life changing surgery.

If you are financially able, giving anything you can spare would help.
