My aunt had a malignant tumor removed approximately eight years ago. Her most recent MRI showed a slow bleed coming from the scar site. She doesnt see her neurologist for a few days. Does anyone know what this could be. Im worried her tumor may be growing back.

TamLeeF, I am very sorry about your mother's cancer and current problems. I cannot tell you what is happening. Only her own medical team can do that. What type of tumor was it? Do you remember its original grade?
