Does Menangioma Cause Memory Loss?

My mom is 95 years old and takes many vitamins one of them being vitamin e 400iu a day. She has a Meningiomas that was diagnosed 8 years ago. She fell and hit her head 8 months ago and since then has problems with her memory that she did not have prior to her fall. The doctor recommended she have an MRI to see if maybe the Meningiomas is causing this issue. He also suggested she quit taking the vitamin e because of the negative affect it could have on the brain. What would some of these negative affects be and is it safer to quit taking e.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Looking to age of your mother I could say that her memory loss could be because of the geriatric problem and nothing to take either with head injury or meningioma, but this is nothing to worry just take good care of your mother, and have good time.
I find this answer helpful
