Calcified Meningioma
In 09.2018 I did an MRI. They said everything was just fine. This month I took another one and at the discussion with the radiologist : everything fine. But the I red the paper and there was written: little calcified meningioma parietal left. How can this be fine? Is it possible just in 3 years a meningioma to appear an also to calcified? I am very confuse.

Someone? Is no one with the same diagnosis?
I just finished 6 weeks of proton radiation for a M on my optic nerve sheath. It was not calcified, but has affected my vision in left eye. Sorry I have no more info for you. Please question them about it.
Hi @hamillc2! I really appreciate that you took time to write to me. I am not satisfied with the answer that the radiologist gave me that everything is fine and I have nothing to worry about. I am very worried. I have an appointment next week with a Neurologist. Thanks once again.
You are welcome! Please let me know how you come out! 🙂
I had a mri the results said heavily calcified lesion on the extra axial left frontal region. Now the dr wants to do a ct scan. Insurance has denied it. The dr mentioned it could be a heavily calcified meningioma. I told him about a childhood injury being hit in the same location with a red paving brick corner . Not sure if that's what this lesion could be, or if it's a calcified meningioma.
I definitely would press your neurologist and if he/she can recommend a solid neurosurgeon. Not saying that you’ll have surgery, at all. A lot of times neurosurgeons will say you can wait and watch it every 3-6-12 months, some will say removal, and some will say radiation, so, it just depends on what you feel is best for you and your situation. Praying for your anxiety. I completely understand. Keep us posted please.
I was having severe Migraines & had MRI were they found calcified meningioma in my occipital lope. He said probably from a concussion in late 70s. I actually had surgery for a dermoid cyst on my pituitary. Migraines 100% better. Meningioma has never been an issue for me. I was seen at NYU.
