@kdog1957 thank you for your reply. I have added "is this the meningioma around the sagital sinus (in contact with) OR growing into it" to my questions for the pre-op appt. I did not know about the proximity to the sagital sinus until I went for a second opinion. The doc doing the surgery said I may need radiation to follow up with whatever she can't remove surgically. Sounds like you are doing fine - happy for you!

Thank you. I had 30 fractionated radiation treatments 6 months after the surgery. It was kind of a nothing burger, no significant side effects.
