Hi everyone, its my first time here so please be gentle!
I was diagnosed with a Meningioma the week before last and struggling to come to terms with everything! You always think it won't happen to you don't you? I am 35 with two small children and having a very hard time dealing with it at the moment.
My surgeon said they are usually benign but it has gone into my jaw and will be a big operation to remove and I may need radiotherpy if they can't get it all out. I have had no symptoms so was lucky it was somewhere it can be seen (just below my right temple) but it is all such a big shock and I keep bursting into tears as I am trying to carry on as normal with it hanging over me all the time!
How did everyone else deal with your diagnosis?
