Hi everyone,

I've been recently diagnosed with malignant glioma grade 4 and had surgery 2 weeks ago where most of the tumor was successfully removed, feeling very grateful but extremely nervous about up coming chemo and radio.

Has anyone got any advice and tips to get through the next weeks please?

  • Stay positive, I was diagnosed July 24 and I have just finished treatment, no side effects whatsoever, worked full time, travelled and kept up with sport. Radio is just a drag going every day especially if you not allowed to drive. Chemos nothing really, just tablets 

    good luck. X

  • Chemotherapy tablets hopefully should be ok. Radiotherapy daily is relentless and I'd suggest getting support to get there and home. I hope it goes well for you. My husband was ok during this time. Rest if you need to and carry on with life as much as you can xx
