Re: brain mets symptoms and scan
Sorry I am a bit late to this thread.Hema's Pet scan of June 30 th disclosed a brain lesion without FDG intake. The Onc felt that no MRI was necessary at that time.Hema's vision got hazy blurred and glary.The Onc ordered an MRI scan on Jan 30.It showed the growth in size of the lesion and dignosed ad met.She has just completed her 20 days of Rad.The vision is better.But the haziness is still there.We are seeing an optholmologist next week*2 weeks after radiation is over* Hoping for the best and our best wishes and prayers to your mother
