Hello,

Is anyone having either stereotactic, gamma knife, cyber knife or whole brain radiation during March this year? Hoping to hang together.

    • Hi Veilkal

    I am not sure if you have had Stereotactic Radiosurgery or not yet. I had the procedure in March 2014 after being treated for phsyciatric problems, when I eventually had an MRI brain scan a tumour was found. After that I "came back" to my normal self mentally. Then in November 2014 another small tumour was detected after a follow up scan and I had the procedure once again. I had no side effects either time and can only promote this treatment. In January 2015 i had another follow up scan and the tumours could not be detected and no further lesions were showing wahoo. I am very grateful that I live in one of the few cities in th UK that offer this treatment. At present I am on Capecitabine Oral Chemo and am tolerating it quite well. Also I have mets to my spine and liver and they are being keot stable with the chemo.


    Sorry for long scroll, good luck
