Jan, we've all felt the way you do now, it's very hard being out on a limb while you wait to see if a treatment has worked. But as the others have said, and especially Joe who's wife is Christine, the founder of this site and a survivor of brain mets, hang in there. I remember some of the others who've had Gamma Knife relating how the tumors would seem to "grow" for a while after the treatment, but this can be due to necrosis; the tumor is actually dying. Hope this is the case with you, try to be patient until you can discuss this with your radiation oncologist....Meanwhile, you're in my thoughts and prayers, don't despair. We're here.
