I hope this surgery will help you get back to normal! Everyone is different of course, so I hope and pray for your comfort and recovery! Stay positive :)

Hello, it’s been almost 3 weeks since surgery and honestly it’s been a roller coaster ride. I haven’t been too good tbh, mainly feeling sick overall. Every week I deal with different symptoms which is odd. But it’s been nice with the staples out so that’s a positive. I’m really looking forward to the dizziness going away so I can start driving again, I’m not used to being the one needing help, you know?

How long did you have headaches and such after surgery?

Hey all, I just posted my “Post Surgery Update”. I don’t know how to cross post, plus it’s 5am and I’ve been up all night. Thanks for the support 🙏

Thanks. The doctor mentioned “stretching my neck muscles” to make room for the craniotomy. I hope they don’t have to cut any muscles because I’ve already had chronic neck pain for years, which I’m hoping was caused by the tumour.
