Diagnosed with Meningioma on 01/13/25

Hi, I am 55 yrs old and was just diagnosed with Meningioma. I am scared. On 12/12/24 I was at work and felt very tired, had slurred speech and left side shifted down. All went back to normal within 15 min. I had a CT scan and then an MRI with and w/o contrast on 1/12/25. I have had no issues since 12/12/24. From time to time, I do feel like I am going to fall feeling but I don’t. It is a very strange feeling. I am going to see a neurosurgeon on 2/4 Afro the first time. I will be traveling to Europe on 2/11 for 10 days. Anyone have any suggestions? I get scared that I am going to have another seizure episode. Thanks

Thanks for the information. Here is the details I was given:
there is a homogeneously enhancing mass, corresponding with
meningioma, in
the anterior medial aspect of the right middle cranial fossa is near the orbital apex measuring approximately 1.2 × 0.8 x 1 cm (TR by AP by CC), causing mild mass effect on the anterior temporal pole.
