I have been diagnosed with a ventral extramedullary intradural spinal lipoma T1-T3. This is all new for me, just wanting to hear from people who have had these. I do not know physically how lipomas affect us differently than other tumor types, maybe they are no different. I do not know what will happen yet, I go back to the neurosurgeon on the 18th and he is a piece of work, but they all say he is an excellent surgeon. I do not have any insurance which is damn scary when you find out you have a tumor in your spine. I am wondering if any of you have experience head symptoms from your tumor? Headaches, ringing in ears, dizziness, pressure...my doc said it didn't have anything to do with this. I am having some other tests done to evaluate something else at this point so I am hoping that is the cause if it isn't the tumor. Thanx for any advice you have for me. ;D
