karen335 Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Went yesterday and today To Cyberknife in San Diego. Had consultation with Nuerosurgeon and Radiation Onc. I am a candidate for CK. I will receive 5 treatments to the brain (Cerabellum) to remove tumor. Had two previous surgeries, now this. Nuerosurgeon and Radiation Onc said 100% effective 90% of the time. Today we did a high resolution MRI and yesterday CT. THe two will be married together for mapping and treatment next week. This treatment is state of the art and new technology. The staff there is very professional and the doctor's are phenominal. I look forward to starting treatment... I would like to ask for your prayers... Thank You. Blessings, Karen I will keep you posted Quote
