Does anyone have a falx meningioma in-between the brain hemispheres?

Hi @gigikocmankokemoor1, I'm tagging @kkenn and @pegorr who may have experiences with meningioma involving the falx cerebri, the brain membrane that separates the left and right sides of the brain.
Gigi, has your care team suggested treatment or are you on active surveillance? How was the meningioma discovered?

Good morning,
I'm new to this chat. Happy to have discovered this support group.
Couple of weeks ago I had a routine MRI of brain after resection of a meningioma back in 2017. My last MRI in 2021 was clear and no signs of anything, but this time around, something may be growing in the anterior falx, according to MRI report. I'm very nervous and anxious as I have to wait a couple of weeks to discuss report findings and images with my Neuro. The findings say that there is a "plaque-like thickening of the anterior falx with homogenous contrast enhancement, possibly reflecting small meningioma measuring 4 x 10 mm"? Is that a concern you think?
Best,

With CT scan then a MRI ,I saw a neurosurgeon 2 was ago he says it's 1.2 cm it's stable and has not grown since last scan, but I have very bad headache, I get off balance, one eye gets so fogging I can not see out of it my memory is real bad, but the neurosurgeon says that the falx meningioma brain tumor is not causing all this stuff,I asked what is then he said maybe my thyroid. But I have had a complete blood work up and all ih good but my cholesterol is high.so I don't know.so I don't know what to do for answers.
