Morning all.1st ever seizure 23/07/22 ..14hrs in AnE...called back for a MRI scan 25/07/22 diagnosed with Meningioma brain tumour!

Situated just above and behind my left ear.

Still in recovery after complete removal(02/11/22), I feel lucky as it has only effected my right shoulder/arm and hand .I am still receiving physiotherapy for my shoulder/arm and hand.

Getting better everyday.

Hi Lu1975.Hard to explain.....dull aching all the time.

Limited movement ie: arm above my head, out to the side away from body, picking up acup/plate etc.. grip 1 day, gone the next.

Need help to shower/get dressed as can't reach my back.

It's weird though as no 2 days the same!!

All depends on goodnight sleep because fatigue affects me too!!

Short term memory loss too, that's so much fun when out with friends 😆

Trying to keep up with conversations!

Sorry to drone on, I do have good days when young grandkids visit and I can forget forra little while,but so tired when they go home.👍
