Hi, I'm new to this and looking to find out..... surgery V radiotherapy. I was diagnosed with a benign meningioma last year. Because of worsening symptoms my neurosurgeon wants me to have surgery, I'm petrified.... So I saw the radiotherapy dept today to see if that's an option and it is. But after hearing about the long term side effects and other issues I'm now thinking at least surgery will remove quite a bit of it, despite the possibility of the after effects, ie facial paralysis after. Has anyone had radiotherapy rather than surgery....?
