I HAD PCI IN NOV.2004 AND OTHER THAN A LITTLE SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS AND FATIGUE....NO PROBLEMS.....AND EITHER OR BOTH THOSE THINGS COULD HAVE BEEN DUE TO CHEMO OR AGING!!
WHEN TUMORS ENDED UP IN MY BRAIN IN AUGUST, I HAD THE SAME DOSE OF RAD AS THEY GAVE ME FOR PCI....ALL I COULD HAVE. AGAIN......NO PROBLEMS
BRAIN TUMORS (NEW ONES)ARE BACK AGAIN....AND I'M TAKING TEMODAR.....(AN ORAL CHEMO) & DECADRON AND DILANTIN. TOLERATING IT ALL WELL.
Edited to say:You heard me right....this time I'm tolerating the oral decadron. WAS on 16 mg daily.....now cut to 12 mg.
