Meningioma: Anyone else? I'm frightened

@carlvcjr: When you notified your doctor that you were now using a walker, but more importantly that you had a seizure, and this happening 8 months post surgery, did he/she order a repeat MRI to take a look/see? With those new symptoms ( needing a walker-seizure) I wouldn't settle for being told things "should reconcile in time" unless another MRI was done to rule out anything new.

@mkoch
Lots of scans, etc were done while I was in the hospital. Apparently the scar tissue from the meningioma surgery triggered the seizure. My GP has ordered scans of my spine because it is possible that the bulging discs at L4/5 and L5- S1 are putting pressure on the nerves. Hence the increasing numbness and weakness.
Thanks
