That's really good news. I was just diagnosed in June.
I've been having headaches with my depression this year and in May I had a CT scan. The only thing they found was mild to moderate shrinkage. My first thought was early onset alzheimer's - very scary!! They didn't say what part of the brain, so I need to ask the neurosurgeon when I see him again. If the shrinkage is caused by BP, and I take lithium (I am) then maybe the shrinkage is reversible. Here's hoping.
