Steph, re brain tumour:
Yes, it was the first mets for me but, saying that, only a biopsy or an operation would have been able to confirm cell structure so there is a possibility that it (they) could be primaries. One major in cerebellum, one smaller in cerebrum. You ask about any treatment "besides an operation" - an operation was not considered feasible by the team. Did I decline options? - there was no option to decline but if I had been offered the possibility of surgery I believe I would have declined it because I would prefer to have the months of life rather than a possibility of being a veg. especially if the recuperation would have left me back at square one anyway. Hope that clarifies it for you. I will have to look up the URLs for the brain tumour sites but it would surprise me if, in your longer time dealing with your own situation, you have not already sourced them. Eccles
