Thank you. I came across the Romero report in Journal of Neuroimaging. My cardiologist suggested that the neurosurgeon I saw did not want to operate. The whole thing, the simultaneous discovery of a meningioma and atrial fib, is depressing. My only symptom is a decrease in sense of smell. My cariologist polled neurologists and neurosurgeons at his University Medical Center and said that the consensus is that patients with meningiomas can be anticoagulated. Atrial Fib is a well know risk factor thromboembolic stroke. Maybe if they can sucessfully cardiovert me, I can go back less agressive anticoagulation, but I know cardioversion often fails to produce a lasting remission from atrial fib.
