Post surgery worries
Hi all, I was diagnosed with a glioma in my right frontal lobe in March. The doctors suspect that it is grade 2 and surgery was scheduled for the end of summer but I recently had an MRI and it’s been growing fast, meaning my surgery had to be brought forward to next Friday. Obviously this gives me a lot less time to mentally prepare myself.
In terms of the surgery itself I’m not too worried but the thought of going from my able-bodied, normal life to being in recovery and having to change my entire lifestyle in the space of 8 hours worries me.
I know many of you would have been through this and probably had the same worries as me. How has it panned out for you? Should I be as worried as I am and is there any advice that you could give me?
I really appreciate all of you who contribute here because it helps ease my nerves ☺️
