Hi pattie. I didnt have a tumor in my temporal lobe, but in 2001 i had my right temporal lobe, hippocampus, and amygdala removed due to epilepsy. I have been seizure free and med free since. I have not experienced any bad side effects from the surgery. I also had my surgery at the mayo clinic in rochester performed by dr. W Richard Marsh. Any questions feel free to ask.
I know I’m very late, but I have the same thing going on- sort of. I’ve had two brain tumours in the past that were removed along with a partial lobectomy for seizures, but now after 5 years they found a tumour in my hippocampus. They can’t biopsy it and they can’t do the LiTT because it’s too dangerous. They said much can’t be done because I’ve already had a lot of surgery- and having my amygdala removed would make it harder to touch my hippocampus. I’m heart broken because this started when I was 12 and I’m 25 now. Do you think this surgeon would help me? (I’m from Canada)
God bless you!!! I'll try to reach my son immediately! Will keep you updated!
