I've been having some intermittent vision problems on some mornings, a bit of trouble focusing after waking up. Not every day but often enough to bug me.
I had an MRI last Wednesday and they discovered a small tumor on the inside of my skull. It's pressing against the frontal lobe and has a tendril extending towards the optic nerves.
Good news is it's small, it's slow growing, and 85% of this type of tumor is benign, if it's benign a full and quick recovery is expected depending on whether or not I need radiation and or surgery.
Bad news is that if it is cancer it's already in the bone.......I'll just leave it at that since it isn't going to be cancer.
Neurology appointment on the 12th, Oncology on the 19th.
