Thank you. I will definitely will scroll through the post. I went to the Neurosurgeon when I was told what I havem but to be honest did not think about the meningioma to much to even ask the right or any question for that matter. As the time is progressing I have been having more headaches than normal, but unfortunately having headaches is normal for me( it should not but it is), now I am investigating more about it and I have another MRI next week since my headaches are stronger and doctor wants to see what is going on or see how much is has grown. I have good family support but at the same token do not want to worry them more than they need to, so I am trying to be positive, and praying that I am able to feel at little bit more calm once I start reading post. Any key questions I should ask the Neurosurgeon?

What is your experience performing this type of surgery?
How many patients have you treated with this condition?
How long will the surgery take?
Where will the incision be, and how will it be closed?
Will I be awake or asleep during the procedure?
What specialists will be part of the surgical team?
What other specialists will be involved in my post-operative care?
3. Recovery and Follow-up:
How long will I be in the hospital after surgery?
What is the expected timeline for recovery and returning to normal activities?
Will I need physical therapy or other rehabilitation?
What are the possible long-term effects of surgery?
