time to vent again...

Please forgive this note.
In addition to a brain injury, I also have a brain tumor, a meningioma, at the top and in the middle of my brain. I've known about it for years; but, because it is not cancerous and wasn't causing any problems, I simply got on with living. Recently I've been having serious headaches, for which my ENT doctor prescribed a strong anti-histamine and nose drops. They work pretty much as intended, but not completely. I still have some rather severe headaches from time to time, and some of them are different from sinus headaches. Which makes me suspect that I may need brain surgery in the future. If my symptoms warrant treatment, I may be absent from the site for a while. Or, if my surgeon uses a gamma knife, I could have it done as an outpatient.
Thanks for letting me vent. I really need my friends on this site.
