Hello from Beth at The Brain Tumour Charity

Hi, I am very sorry to hear of your diagnosis. We have a list of questions on our website that you may like to look through and to pick out those that are important to you. You can find our list of questions here: thebraintumourcharity.org/b...
Thank you Beth I will take a look I am nearly a year post rectal cancer and had major surgery for that something called abdominoperineal resection I have made a good recovery from that so I will surely deal with this 👍
Hi Beth I had operation to debunk my acoustic neuroma 4 years ago ir has left me very bad dry eye which is very painful is there anything you could recommend
Hi I am sorry to hear of your diagnosis and the complication of dry eyes that you have following your surgery. We are not medically trained so I am unable to make any specific recommendations as to what may work for you, however we would recommend speaking with your medical team or GP as there are various drops and gels that may be helpful, though you may need to try a few to find one that is most beneficial for you. Depending on the exact cause of why your eyes are becoming dry there may be other treatments available to you.
Thank you Beth x
Hi Beth.
Hi Beth, I have a acoustic neuroma I was told my CT scan done in April showed that it had grown but in the last 8 weeks I have had headaches every day and every evening.
I eventually got/ to see my GP she says if it was another brain tumour she THINKS my CT scan would have shown it up. Do you think my ENT consultant would have picked that up ?
