Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.
1. The MRI scan brain shows a small tumor in the left side of brain. It measures 1.9 x 0.8 x 1.6 cm and is rich in blood supply. The features show it to be a likely meningioma.
2. Meningiomas are tumors arising from the covering of the brain. Some of them might grow quickly if left inside. Therefore the choice of treatment is surgery.
3. It is important to know the symptoms you are facing. If the symptoms are mild then your doctor might choose to follow up for some time more and then review with another scan.
Hope this answers your question. Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
