You came to the right place Flossie! There are many of us multiple time Gamma gals on this site. I think it was Hutchibk who coined the phrase "whack-a-mole" for the approach that we have taken to avoid WBR by having Gamma Knife every time these pesky brain mets pop up. I've had 11 brain mets successfully treated during two separate Gamma Knife sessions. I'm hoping that will be all of them, but you just never know. I am hopefully though, that if they do find anymore, Gamma will blast them to oblivion once again. It really is a miracle treatment.
I've had my Gamma Knife at UCSF and they have a really inspirational story posted on one of their websites about a patient, just like us who has had Gamma Knife FIVE times to treat about 60 BRAIN METS! And she is apparently doing well. If you're interested, you can read her story here:
