Answer I'm not a neurologist or a neurosurgeon. I'm a medical oncologist & radiation therapist with experience of treating brain tumors. I personally doubt that your lipoma has anything to do with your symptoms. Based on your description I think that what you have are severe migraine attacks. However that is outside my area of expertise here so again I have to urge you to direct this question to an expert of neurology. Besides brain lipomas and treatment of them is something I have no personal experience of. I'm not even aware of any brain lipoma that needed any treatment. I also think that if your drs believed that your lipoma is causing your problems and that its removal could help you they would definitely have suggested it to you and discussed it with you. Your question seems to indicate that that is not the case. If I'm mistaken on that point please correct me! I think that your lipoma was just seen on your CT & MRI brain scans and reported to you as something they had just happened to see without being of any real importance especially not with regards to your symptoms.
