Susan,

yes, the longer course with lower dosage at a time would be the way I'd have gone, hoping to get that drug in conjunction (brain fart leaves name a mystery...) to help with effectiveness. I'd also be looking at adding a low dose of Temodar which has been done in a small study with positive results.

yup, the concern is for quick recurrance. And that was true for me. But I was willing to risk it and then deal with it as it ocurred.

It sounds like you're in good shape! I think that will be to your advantage no matter what course of tx you pursue.

You're very welcome... When I was first dx'd with brain mets I spent a lot of time looking for others who could share their experience, since the documented numbers looked bleak. But their were few at the time; not so anymore.
