Meningioma: Anyone else? I'm frightened

Thank you and I appreciate your comment. Wandering if I have to get a consult from the neurologist first or can I look up a neurosurgeon with MRI results in hand? Sorry, I’m so new to this. I thought I was the healthiest person I knew. Omg, this is so stressful.

I was referred to the first neurosurgeon by my PCP. I did not like our interaction or lack of information he was willing to provide. Like, how many of these do you do? He brushed passed it and started talking setting up surgery. I set up the next to on my own, with UPMC Pittsburgh and Mayo Rochester. Both were excellent. Hope this helps

If Mayo Clinic in AZ, FL or MN is an option for you, here is how to request a second opinion: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

@ljm1, did you decide on getting a second opinion? Any update?
