Hi everyone

A family member of mine, a young adult, has recently been diagnosed with a grade 3 oligodendroglioma. We had a very successful debulk and the prognosis is fairly positive with treatment.

Our concern now moves on to quality of life. My family member has no real physical symptoms, however there has been a big shift in personality, decision making and mood.

Does anyone have any info on the long term symptoms and quality of life? Can symptoms improve post treatment or are symptoms likely to remain?

Thank you all

First time posting. A family member has become very sick. We received a diagnosis a month ago & as much as possible was removed via craniotomy. We're awaiting final pathology, but initial histology is glioblastoma. The family member diagnosed is a young adult.

There have been a number of areas to support, however top of the list is very severe depression. My family member had no prior history of any mental health issues.

If anyone has any advice on supporting someone through this period, it would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, I'm uncertain who should be supporting my family member, is the more appropriate person a neuro-psychiatrist?

Thank you all.
