Cancer brings on emotions you never knew you had. I had a glioma in my left frontal lobe so I understand. If you ever want to talk my dms are open

i can’t seem to dm you but did you have a lot of trouble getting help? i’ve seen 3 different doctors at two different hospitals that’s are supposed to be good for brain tumors and i still feel like i know nothing about this. everything ive learned is from the internet. nobody wants to biopsy or treat it because of how deep it is but im having a lot of symptoms. since october we’ve done *literally nothing* except repeat MRIs. i’m not in school and i don’t work because i can’t anymore

i feel like i’m just being passed around from doctor to doctor because it doesn’t seem to be any of my their problem but if it’s not general neurology, neurosurgery or neuro oncology then who’s problem is it because it would be good to know. i asked the surgeon if it was malignant and he said “well it’s probably grade 2 so…” and then he just like left. i have so many probables but nobody’s interested in actually confirming anything or treating me
