I was diagnosed with grade 2 Oli on jan 1st. Have had surgery and removed over half of it after 4 surgeries I still have a lot of numbness in both arms and both legs. Anyone else have this problem?

Pokrdlr33, I am very sorry about your Oli. If you read my story (links in signature box) you will see that in 1992 I was diagnosed with a Astrocytoma Grade II (cousin to an Oli... both are gliomas. I did not have surgery then. However, when it recurred in 2005, I did. I do not have numbness but I do have some right sided weakness. It has not changed since the surgery so I assume it is something I will have to deal with for the rest of my life.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.
