Hi Steph,

We both have brain mets in the same location behind our left ears. Please consult with your rad doc about your head position while doing gamma knife, because in my case, it just so happened that gamma knife people had a little trouble putting my head onto the machine, due to my short neck. Eventually, they had to reposition my head manually, not electronically.

I also don't feel any symptoms from my brain met. The location of our tumors should not affect any of our bodily functions. Do double-check, though.

Good luck!
