Secondary brain tumour

Hi Boomer 

That sounds positive news that the tumour has been successfully removed, and I'll keep everything crossed that the scan is clear.

Thanks latchbrook he had his body scan yesterday so should know more next week. It’s so confusing, I can never think of what I need to ask until too late. But we do have a Clinical Nurse Specialist allocated so I can contact her. So many unknowns. Like if it’s come from his kidney why has it come after so long.  I’m just terrified the will say it’s everywhere and there is nothing they can do. Regards, Boomer

its been a month since you wrote down a bout your husband secondary tumor, I have a secondary brain cancer and was interested in how your husband is?

Hi, he’s going to undergo radiotherapy at the end of this month, then another brain scan after 3 months. He saw the Oncologist a few days ago and because it has come from a previous tumour it is being classed as stage 4, as they can’t be sure there won’t be cells hanging about somewhere else. She also said there is the possibility of chemotherapy after radiotherapy, she gave us some information about that. It’s a waiting game now, the full body scan didn’t show any tumours anywhere else at the moment but there are no guarantees that something won’t develop in the future. How are you doing Xavia?

Why have they not removed it may I add x

How many lesions do you have and have they talked about removal of the tumor, I'm asking this as my sister had the same. 

Husbands radiotherapy now completed, mri and ct scans to be done in September, looking good presently,massive thanks to the neurosurgeon and oncologist and all the other staff who have been so marvellous, just taking it a day at a time now, much love and good wishes to all those who are undergoing treatment currently.
