Well gang, I am getting a little closer to finding out what, if anything, can be done for my Question Mark that showed up in my last brain MRI.
To recap, there is a little enlargement to the area of Gamma Knife one year ago in my cerebellum. This is after nine months of shrinkage.
So it was decided to try a PET scan of my brain to see if they can tell any more about what is going on before doing an actual open surgery.

If I am lucky, I will have results Friday. My docs are all in town this week!
One thing I did not know - no need for Atavan with the brain PET. Means I can drive myself and no one has to wait with me.

It will be a comfort to know that I have a lot of good energy and prayers coming from the wonderful people here.
