Currently I'm on active surveillance. I'm still reading posts about other's experience in case my next MRI signals my doctor to suggest radiation. I already had one craniotomy and am told if the other 2 grow that will not be an option. I was offered radiation on the meningioma removed a year and a half ago. I got opinions from 2 different doctors-one suggested 5 days a week for 5 weeks and the other doctor said one and done. Though Mon. thru Fri for 5 weeks would be most inconvenient given that I would have to drive an hour each way, the thought of one single zap seems really scary to me. Hopefully, I won't have to make that decision.
