Meningioma: Anyone else? I'm frightened

Some great people are ready to step up and help you alongside you and give you support, count me in too, prayer groups and prayer chains help emmensly. Have a blessed day and try best to relax some, stress doesn't help, with me I get a headache. You're in good company here.

I'm in the sa.e boat as you and very scared. I have looked up e every thing I can find on the internet not sure this is a good thing. I have an appointment on December the 10th. Iam finding a lot of peace in prayer

@dollyjaneprenzel thank you so much, started out normal day and went to a very good evening.

Thank you so much 💓

Thank you for sharing, im actually stable for now, trying and fighting to
live every day.

Lots of scans, etc were done while I was in the hospital. Apparently the scar tissue from the meningioma surgery triggered the seizure. My GP has ordered scans of my spine because it is possible that the bulging discs at L4/5 and L5- S1 are putting pressure on the nerves. Hence the increasing numbness and weakness.
Thanks

@carlvcjr: When you notified your doctor that you were now using a walker, but more importantly that you had a seizure, and this happening 8 months post surgery, did he/she order a repeat MRI to take a look/see? With those new symptoms ( needing a walker-seizure) I wouldn't settle for being told things "should reconcile in time" unless another MRI was done to rule out anything new.

I had meningioma surgery nine months ago. The tumor was half the size of a cue ball, for reference. I had no symptoms other than increasing weakness ( I had lost nearly 50 pounds and was exercising daily). I was on a high dose of mounjaro for my type 2 diabetes and my A1C was 6.1 at that point. My surgery went very well and I only spent 1 night in ICU and I night in the hospital. I had been an accomplished pianist but the surgery left me unable to play with my left hand. After months of intense practicing I am once again able to play but not at the level of consistency I used to have. I am still experiencing extreme weakness on my left side in particular and have had to start using a walker over the past several weeks. I'm very frustrated at this point. I had my first ever seizure a month ago and now can't drive. I'm sorry for the essay but wonder if anyone else has experienced anything similar. The doctors keep saying that this should reconcile in time

@mono21 I understand. I would be scared too. Good luck and Godspeed. Let us know.

Yes I had one in September. My Meningioma has grown and I’m having surgery on Wednesday. I’m scared.
Make sure you ask plenty of questions. Good luck.
