I don't think you can answer this on with any accuracy, because everyone is different, my husband has it & was diagnosed in Feb 08 & had 80% removed, he has been very good since but I am aware it can come back at any time but as yet it has not, but I know of others who have only had 6 months before it has come back, your doctor will not give you a time frame because everyone is individual & they dont want to guess. It also depends where in the brain it is & how deep it has invaded the brain, so just keep hoping it never comes back & try & live life to the full.
