Steph,
Apparently they can't tell what is causing this. I feel the same way you do...the procedure can be painful and is it worth it especially because they don't know what is causing her loss of sight?
I always hate to advice her, because I'm not the patient, but I did tell her that I thought she should give the radiation abit more time. Last time she had radiation it took some time, but her vision did improve.
She's dealing with so much now, that again she expressed the desire to stop all chemo for awhile...she seems to be doing so well on Herceptin. Last scan showed shrinkage in her tumors. My husband just booked a trip for her to join my other sister and parents in Florida..of course, we had to arrange for an airport escort. She's leaving on the 22nd....she'll make some decisions when she returns...thanks for all the support,
Celina
