jcawork Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 I got the final read today and as of right now the 2 mets I had are gone and nothing new has grown. I am happy yet cautious. Rescan of head in 60 days. I am still feeling crappy, but have no real idea why. Still very off balance, like sea legs. Docs now wants me to see ENT as they are concerned the WBR did some perm. damage to the inner ear. By my last day of WBR my outside ears, inside ear canals and drums were incredibly red, hot and inflamed. Used steroids drops for a few weeks, but if its the inner ear, these wont hit it. I have been concerne that all of this off balance stuff was due to brain mets, but they tell me its not. Did anyone else have ear issues w/ WBR? Thanks, Jen Quote
MilliBr1 Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 Jen happy to hear your test results were good! Hope they can figure out why you are off balance and that it is not permanent. Quote

TAnn Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 Jen, Yeah!!! Great news on the mets. I only had ringing in the ears after my WBR. Didn't experience the other problems, but remember, it keeps working for a few months, so in time, you may feel better. I did. TAnn Quote
