It came on gradually. I was diagnosed with a tiny meningioma when I was 45. Neurosurgeon said “nothing to worry about” and made no mention of followup MRI’s. I divorced when I was 55, so naturally I thought I was depressed. The apathy emotion was a gradual thing for sure. Big meningioma discovered at age 64. Very thankful for a top notch neurosurgeon from OSF in Peoria.

@reginamyers1958 how are you doing now? I was just diagnosed last December with meningioma with edema. Did follow up mri last week. Waiting for my follow up visit with neurosurgeon this week.
