Steph, I'm not sure what type of machine they have at Cedars-Sinai, but they can detect things way smaller than the machine I was using before at Loma Linda University.

Scary to think that if I had gotten the MRI at Loma Linda I'd still be ignorant and happy....their machine wouldn't have spotted a 1 mm lesion.

The second MRI I had done yesterday showed the lesion had grown in the 3 weeks time frame between MRI's. It had gone from 1 mm to still a bit under 2 mm.

I have heard from another metster who has dealt with 2 lesions in the brain stem and it has given me renewed hope and optimism.
