Thank you for your comprehensive description of what I’ve been suspecting since a PET scan in 2022 showed activity in both brain and right upper lung. Lung resection in same year, oncogenic activity in brain has been ignored by all treating physicians , I have a third PET scan slated for some future date .I feel fortunate I am still relatively symptom free after two years , Gliablastoma must not be a player in my case

Can a meningioma on your spine cause extreme pain your mri can’t see? I have a morphine pump or I wouldn’t be able to walk or sit. But I’d really like to find the problem and fix it surgically so I could remove the drug. They said they saw meningiomas, on my spine nut they were small.

Mine is super small but I have symptoms I'm sorry but doctors typically wait until symptoms are severe or permanent and it's bs! I've had symptoms now for 3 years and they keep saying it's too small to cause issues yet how do they know I'm not a cookie cutter patient smh

Why would you want surgery it will not do anything for your symptoms plus the surgery will disfigure your face most likely and will bring on new signs and symptoms here doctors are telling you what they know so don't think a surgery is going to alleviate your symptoms it will not it will add only new ones most likely plus face disfigurement it's your choice

Did you receive radiation after the tumor was removed in 2017? Have they been doing repeated MRI scans to catch the tumor before it grew back? Monitoring is very important

I disagree wholeheartedly with the notion imposed by the companies that provide cellular service, that cell usage does not lead to meningiomas. IT DOES ! All studies that do prove such a relationship have been destroyed by the various providers, however I have in my possession several studies from Switzerland, Holland an Australia that connect the dots in an honest and scientific way. It is literally a criminal action to inform people at lectures that cell usage is not VERY dangerous.
