Thank you for asking. Even though it feels like a lifetime away, I have an appointment in April with a neurologist who specialize in the treatment of brain tumors. I am definitely interested in second and third opinions. Thank you for the info.

Had first appointment with neurologist. He doesn’t think the headaches are an effect of the tumor. It’s located left anterior intracerebral falx measuring 11x6mm. I asked about surgery, he said the hemispheres will have to be pulled away in order to reach it because it’s in a sensitive area near sinuses and drains. So we will be doing another MRI in June to assess growth or change. At that time we will see the neurosurgeon and hopefully go forward to radiation treatment. Even though I’ve been told it’s small in size, I just don’t want to wake a sleeping giant.
