Hi, I've received a recent diagnosis of an Ependymoma in my 4th ventricle. I understand this is pretty rare, but I'm wondering how rare... I'm also wondering how urgent this is...
Is anyone in a similar situation and where are you being treated? I'm with Kings.
Thanks!!
HI Spanna22

The members of this community have a vast range of experiences so I'm hopeful that someone with a similar experience will be along shortly to offer you their words of wisdom.
My own experience lies in supporting my husband with his stage 4 glioblastoma journey.
