new to this chat room and total novice at brain tumours. Seem to have landed the biggie!
diagnosed on 19 March, frontal lobe tumour removed on 29th. I started chemo and radio on 8 May and finished on 20 June.
MRI on 30 June which was reviewed on day I restarted chemo and which showed a patch where tumour had been. Doc had already said the MRI would ‘not show much’ and that the report would state that there were changes in the brain but wouldn’t distinguish between effects of radio and disease progression. Was still a massive shock to hear it but slowly coming down and reapplying logic!
I feel absolutely fine physically and am using that as my only metric……. on my strong says. And other days I panic!!!!!!
I have so much to live for and feel and look like me!! Would be good to chat to others in a similar position!!
i feel totally positive, mostly! Would love to hear from anybody else who is determined to win this bitter battle!
