Several weeks ago I started noticing that I was spelling words incorrectly, having some difficulty writting on paper (a pause or delay before I start to write), and hitting the wrong keys on the key board. I have been complaining about vocabulary loss for several years, and feel that it has become worse, and my memory has become terrible, I have also had some subtle balance problems.
I have been ignoring the memory & vocab issues thinking it was related to menopause, but when the spelling, typing, writing issues started I went to my primary. I had an MRI done which showed a 2cm left parietal meningioma with mild mass affect to the underlying sulci. When I saw the neurologist, she told me the meningioma had nothing to do with my symptoms, and asked if I had ever seen a psychiatrist. I asked her about possible hormonal influence on meningioma growth and she said she has never heard of any connection between hormones and meningiomas.
Nothing she has told me makes any sense to me based on what I have been reading.
Feedback would be appreciated
