Thanks

I just wanted to thank all of you for the opinions that just because one doctor is out of ideas etc. does not mean I have to give up. It was what I needed to hear.

My brain surgeon called me yesterday as I had not recieved the info from him directly nor seen the report and he was wonderful. He even suggested that I check into another program he knows about and I am calling back to his office today to ensure my look-up was right! He also viewed me as a "fighter" and seemed surprized at the attitude of my doctor toward my treatment.

He confirmed the met surgically removed was clear and that the swelling symptoms I was experiencing were normal. The met that has grown slightly that is close to it is the bugger that made me feel like it is growing again as it has swelling. The little one on the right has grown a bit more tho...it seems like the right side of me (brain and lung met) is after me the hardest for whatever reason.

I'd be lying if I didn't tell you that I'm scared etc. But, I just don't want to give up hope. I am researching and studying etc.

Once again I just want to tell all of you that I appreciate all your assistance, information and any reading my posts....sorry I am not sure whether or not it is time to give up? I don't feel like it is but I can't help but wonder if I'm just being unrealistic and can't face it.

It means a lot for me.....just help me keep hoping for the best and I'll post as I find out info.

Thanks for caring!
