Stere tactic brain radition - 3 months later, tumor still sh

[marym]

Hi All,

I had a 3 month MRI this week and received results yesterday. I had 3 lesions, two very smll and one a little over 1 cm.

Results are tht the 1cm grew and there's edema. The other two are gone. I display no effect - they gave me the eye, balance, touch and even math tests. The doctor said sometimes there is growth before a tumor dies -I forget what he called it pseudo something. He has decided to wait and do another MRI in six weeks and make a decision based on results of that test.

Others have this pseudo-something effect? What treatment was used if the tumor remained?

Thanks,

Maureen
