Hi ladies, I think I have been put through the wringer the last few days. For anyone who doesn't know about my lastest fiasckle I will try and fill in the missing info. Last Wedensday, I had a brain MRI. They found 2 tumors one in or close to the brain stem and the other one was not in a bad place. Had Gamma Knifesurgery Thursday. The Neorosurgeon was very sure that this would get rid of them. Keeping my fingers crossed. He is now starting to wean me off the streroids.

Today I went for blood work, ct scans, mri, and I also spoke with my oncologist. What a long day. I just got home after leaving @11:00 it is now 8:55.

Please keep me in your prayers that I get good results. I will find out these on Dec.24

I really appreciate everyone here for all your help. I only hope one day I can repay.
Hugs to everyone,
Cheryl

Hi Cheryl: My goodness! what a day you've had!!!
I hope all of your tests/scans come back clear for you. As others have said, there are many success stories involving brain mets that have been reported here. Let's hope you will be the next one to post good news. Hang in there and know we are all rooting for you. Take Care, Linda
