3 Month post-treatment MRI seems clean
I had an MRI today. Oncologist said it looks OK to him, but will wait till report from Radiologist. This waiting means nothing because if the Radiologist disagrees, the Oncologist has seniority. So I'm good.
What about the increased headaches? Take more tramadol.
What about the tingling left hand side of my face? Well, this is more interesting, but he did not seem concerned about this. He said that my brain is 'changing'. Changing can include things like long-term results of the radiation, not necessarily tumor growth.
I think he is looking for much more serious issues, like not being able to move a limb or feel my hand.
Well that's fine, but it is maddening to know I have a BT, have a screaming headache, and my face tingling like it fell asleep. I guess, I know it can be worse.
I am wondering why he even wants to see me if I can walk in.
p.s brain fart - this was originally posted as "6" months post-treatment, its only been 3.

ReplyDeleteThat is great news that your MRI is clean. Like I said before - when one person does well then it gives hope to all the rest of us.
