I just had my MRI done and measures 1.7x1.8 cm. The neurosurgeon said we will await one more year, repeat MRI and if reaches 2.0 cm will undergo surgery to remove left parietal Meningioma as it will really start to increase issues but large enough to assure they can fully remove with adequate margins in hopes of no reoccurrence.

Just curious where your meningioma is located. This sounds like mine that was found in 1999. It is still there. Located in the anterior Falx. They did gamma knife radiation to stop growth.

@csue1 mine is in left parietal. They are waiting until 2027 to do anything. At this point, I am not a candidate for gamma knife.
