I had the surgery last summer, and I spent 3-4 days in the PICU and 2-3 in a regular hospital room. The surgery gave me back my freedom. My symptoms were weight gain, exhaustion, irritability, blurry vision, and awful headaches that would keep me in bed for days.

Hi, I had my surgery recently as well. I can say that since then I am a new person. The surgery removed all the side effects I was suffering from. I was in the hospital for about a week and then I came home. In my case, the tumor was large and also caused me visual disturbances. I can say that since then I feel much better.
