Hi everyone, just found out a little more info on brain lesion
Right hand side, on the periphery of brain not deep inside , only one but 2.4cm .
Will find out more on 2 January but 2.4 cm is big right ? Any one got any thoughts ?

Hi Pam,
My tumour was 2.7cm and from the scans I saw it was deep. So: a bit bigger than yours with more collateral damage done to get at it. I had surgery and the edges of the hole that remained got a few sessions of radiotherapy to finish the job off. I ended up fine and you should be too.
kind regards
Steve
Hi Chelseagirl I don’t know much about this, but I would say that the fact it is peripheral is a good thing! And you don’t seem to be having any side effects of it being there. Like Steve has said this should be easily treated x
