Good Day, I've, recently Celebrated my 20th Craniversary (March 27, 2006) from Bengin Golfball size Meningioma. The Healing Journey continues to be evolving with living with Vertigo/Balance issues at times. I'm 71years of age today and had two other relatives that had similar Brain Tumors. Blessings to All🧠

4 years ago today I had my brain tumor removed. Wow what a ride, I’m pretty blessed considering size. Very little deficits. Noticable changes in my life but I’m still here and living my best life all things considered.

1 Reaction@martha30 Depending on the size and exact location they can either do surgery or now there is a laser instrument that they can use to remove it. Mine was a very slow growing tumor and I had absolutely nothing to indicate it was there. I fell and hit my head on a heavy wooden cabinet. I passed out for a few seconds. Because I hit across my left eye I was afraid I had broken something. I went to the ER and had x-rays done. I didn't break anything but it showed the large tumor. I was immediately referred to a neurosurgeon. He did an MRI and found that it was large with multiple outgrowths. He told me if I had waited even two weeks to come in I would have had a stroke from the pressure it was causing on the brain.
I hope everything goes well for you.
