Hi,

I developed a pilonidal cyst. Didn't know what this was until I got
one. It's a cyst a the end of onr'd tail bone (coccyx) where we have a
cavity from birth. Sometimes this becomes infected and must lanced and
later be removed. This is what is happening to me.

My concern is that the surgeon will be doing a "spinal anesthesia". Has
anyone have had a cyst removed and or has had a spinal anesthesia done
to them????

Best to all.
