  • A very warm welcome to the forum Manonthemoor although I'm sorry to hear you were diagnosed with a brain tumour.

    I hope you are recovering well from your surgery but for any questions you have about the debulking and your brain tumour, you can give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040 Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m or make a new post in their section of the forum.

    Hopefully you will hear back from some of our members who have been on this journey soon but for further information and advice, it may be worth getting in touch with The Brain Tumour Charity.

    We're thinking of you Manonthemoor and hope the test results bring good news when the time comes.

    Kind regards,
