Awaiting second MRI for Meningioma in right lower quadrant

Posted by bonjimhome @bonjimhome, Apr 2 9:57pm

If it has grown, what are possible side effects of surgery?

I also have a CPA meningioma on my right side, will have a second scan in June to determine if it has grown. I have read a lot of surgery side effects, but would welcome to hear from others.

Just had my second MRI a week ago and met with two neurosurgeons for follow up yesterday. Both say there was no change and can wait 6 months for MRI. Said it may never change. Glad I waited to have craniotomy after first MRI

I have a second MRI scheduled for the last week of July. My skull-based left side meningioma, diagnosed in February, is near the optic nerve. Good luck to everyone on this site.
