Hi I'm 51 years old and 2 year ago I was diagnosed with a parasagittal meningioma (benign) , I have yearly MRI scans just to check , but I'm starting to suffer with severe headaches night sweats , dizzy spells and insomnia, But my neurosurgeon said I'm fine? I'm suffering severe depression and very high anxiety any advise?

Meningiomas don't always cause any symptoms, my wife has a large meningioma which is causing weakness problem in her right leg & arm and confusion to her thinking, so is due to have it removed before Christmas, your medical symptoms could be due to another medical condition entirely such as menopause? My wife also had that in her early 50s giving similar symptoms you speak of...her menopause has now subsided, but is now facing a battle with the tumour.. she will win again!😉
