I was diagnosed in 2011 with a Ganglioglioma grade 1 in my right temporal amygdala. The surgeon was able to remove the entire tumor and I didn't have chemo or radiation treatments. I now have both cystic and non cystic encephalomalacia. It surrounds the surgical bed and I have epilepsy as well as psychogenic non epileptic seizures (PNES). I am doing well and other than having autoimmune thyroid disease, I am thriving post surgery. I must say that I am no longer able to multitask and have attention/focus issues.
