On steriods and anri convulsion meds. Any advice would be appreciated 

  • Hi Sdlgb welcome to the group, but so sorry you find yourself here. That must of been a terrible shock for you. I hope you have support from family or friends at home. Steroids can help a lot with side effects from brain mets, so I hope they are helping some for you. 

    I have lung cancer, and like you I am incurable. It is a terrible shock to find yourself in this awful situation, but talking to people who are going through a similar situation to yourself does help. Can I please suggest that you come and join the

    This group is only for people like us with incurable cancer, and I think it will be beneficial to you. It is an extremely warm and welcoming group, and there are a couple of people there who have brain mets. Once you have joined, you can post a thread, the same as you have here, and I am sure you will get someone come and chat with you with a similar experience to share. I will look out for you there too x
