I was diagnosed May 31 and they said it has to be removed due to pressing on my left optic nerve and pituitary gland. I agree with second and/third opinions. I’m very anxious/nervous as well.

Mine is behind my left eye and close to my optic nerve. Are you having any symptoms? Are you having a craniotomy? I think that's the only way they can get to mine. I've had a lot of surgeries ( no spleen, hip replacement, ACL,etc) but none of those scared me the way this craniotomy does. Thank you for sharing your comment. It helps to know I'm not alone in this.
