Post brain surgery

Hi i'm Carl i recently had brain surgery to remove half my tumour, i'm told it's grade 2 mixed glioma which now needs constant scans to keep an eye on it as the cells look like there not reacting as normal whatever that means, i'm 38 years old and this has turned my life upside down, i think the worryring part is i'm still getting symptoms and wondering will this progress faster to  grade 3 or 4, i'm not liking the whole lets see what it does before we decide what to do with the rest of it scenario.
