3 years ago my meningioma was discovered by accident. I had a dvt in my left leg - then checked lungs had pulmonary emboli in both and then checked my head. I had a 2.8cm that as far as I know was not causing me problems. Went on eliquis for the PE's and took the wait and see approach for the meningioma. had MRI's every 6 months and now it is 4.3cm in my cerebellum. I am 68 years old. I play doubles tennis 4x a week. My dad had a similar meningioma 30 years ago but with balance and vision symptoms. The surgery was successful but the swelling in his brain was not treated timely. So my main concern going forward is for a team approach whereby something like swelling or more PE's are treated right away.I've gotten 3 opinions and all agree that surgery (craniotomy) is next. They might not be able to get it all so radiation would be in my future to make sure what was left does not grow. The surgery is now scheduled for Feb. 18.
