Spinal meningioma tumor removal
I am scheduled to have a spinal meningioma intradural tumor removed on 6-2-25. Very nervous! Anyone else have this done? Your thoughts, please.

Did you have the procedure? How are you? Which procedure did they do? Thx!
Yes, 6-2-25. Laminectomy T8-T10 and menangioma tumor removal. Doing PT now.
Can you tell me more? how was surgery, recovery? U happy with your dr? Your results? I’m so trying to find one I think has enough experience. Thank you !!
I LOVE my Dr! He's a neurosurgeon. Tumor was benign. Two nights in hospital. More painful than I anticipated , but pain meds helped but was on them longer than I thought. Doing PT now. 8 weeks post op
I am glad you are on the mend!! Could you reach me privately to give me your drs name? Also which procedure did u have? Lamindectomy or?
Thank you for answering me. I appreciate it very much
How do I reach you privately? Where do you live? I'm in Reno
You just click on my name
Oh wow Reno. I’m in Texas
Definitely go to a neurosurgeon with experience. Excision of intramural tumor with laminectomy T7-T9.
I was terrified too, but was well taken care of.
The unknown is so scary. Did you have problems walking? I have to use a cane. Do you know what size yours was?
Did you need any hardware put in?
