My friend with brain metastisis
I posted last month regarding my friend who recently had a large brain tumor removed. She has HER2 and the Herceptin was doing well for her otherwise. She came out of the surgery like a champion. She had 8 hours of surgery on Monday and they released her on Thursday. Maybe that's normal, but it seemed pretty quick. She hit the ground running and did very well, but I could tell she wasn't feeling very well this last week or so and she complained of headaches. She was vomiting continuously early in the week, and is now back in the hospital with what the doctor is referring to as "post surgical meningitis." I know this is very serious, and I am wondering if anyone has any other information concerning this? I talked to her on the phone and she sounds very ill. Apparently this could be very difficult to treat. Thanks for any comments,
