@dlc1953 Thank you so much! Can’t tell you how much I appreciate your prompt, thorough response!🙏🏽
My tumor is 1cm on the top, RT side so we shall see what the Opthomeurologist has to say. Fortunately, I’m surrounded by good teaching universities incl UCSF and. Stanford so will definitely tap into that resource.
I’m so glad your treatment went well and pray that everything continues to go well. Blessings to you!💕🙏🏽

@lisaj63: I had my craniotomy exactly 2 years ago at UCSF and just had a zoom video check up with the neurosurgeon who did the surgery last week. I can't say enough wonderful things about my experience. Dr. Theodosopoulos is the neurosurgeon you would want to see for a craniotomy and he also runs the gamma knife radiation clinic. During my initial consult 2 years ago, which was also a zoom visit, he went over the MRI I had digitally transferred from my local clinic (my meningioma was also discovered incidentally) gave me all the information I needed and said it was my choice. He recommended a craniotomy but he also runs the clinic that does the gamma ray procedure. Once again, can't say enough great things about my experience at UCSF. It's rated #2 in the country for neurosurgery.
