Title: Can/Does Radiosurgery reduce dizziness/disequilibrium?
Post by: drumfest on September 23, 2025, 12:55:14 PM
Hello,  Does/Can radiosurgery reduce the dizziness & disequilibrium sensation?  I'm in watch and wait with a 1.5cm tumor & experience mild transient dizziness and disequilibrium daily.  This comes and goes, but I have no other medical issues that would bring about dizziness so, I assume it's coming from the AN.  I’d like to know if radio surgery would help to reduce these symptoms post treatment.  I understand it may be awhile to experience relief due to tumor swelling and other side effects of radio surgery.  I’m looking longer term to hopefully feel a reduction in the dizziness/disequilibrium sensation.  I've listened to the experts talk about this and they don't give a definitive answer.  I just want to know if anyone out there had dizziness prior to radiosurgery & then it got better after treatment.  (basically, real life experience)  Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
