Re: Brain Necrosis - No Add'l Treatment - Your thoughts

Kris,
Glad you finally posted and updated your status. It sounds like better news than progression! Sounds as though you have had minimal side effect from the treatment, so as long as the necrosis stays stable, you are good. I am voting for the second opinion also! I am praying for clear guidance and quick, permanent recovery! Take care and stay strong.
