@doyel wish i could help you there as to what size. my memory is not that great after my tumor removal but someone should answer you in the comments here. sending a preayer for you to have a good doctor and out the doors with little to no time recovering-------prayer sent have a blessed day.

@doyel: I see it's been 6 days since you posted so I'll weigh in since no one else has. My neurologist told me they don't like to use gamma or cyber knife once the meningioma grows to about 3 centimeters. The radiation specialist I was referred to verified this. But I've read on this Mayo Connect platform that others say 4 to 5 cm. I don't know where they got their information.
