Brain lesion / tumor

So I’ve known for over 10 years I had spots on my brain but I found out yesterday from my psychiatrist that one is growing. It’s now 19mm by 17mms…
it’s growing really slowly it was 8mms 10 years ago but I’m scared…
they are sending me to a neurosurgeon and talking about maybe removing it. I’m ■■■■ scared of brain surgery… just don’t know what to do…

That does sound scary. Do you have a support system like your parents who can help you if you need it?

hey. There’s been some really good progress with cancers over the last few years. Better scans and tactics have meant way better outcomes. It’s scary stuff but have some faith in your doctors and do what you need to do!

I agree. Having a decent support system can be beneficial but have some faith and just do your treatment. Hoping it goes well for you! I know there’s uncertainty but you can get through it!
