so sorry to hear your news Bubbly, sounds like a scary time for you - i am afraid i don’t know much about brain but i know you will get good responses from people here who do - but sending you lots of love , jaynex
Oh no Bubbly, sorry to hear your news. Dont know if you remember mr from Liverpool meet.
Is hard to offer advice without knowing more information. Is there just one tumour or more? Are the treatments you talk about radiotherapy?
How did you find out? I personally know of at least 2 people who have been successfully treated by different methods.
If you want to pm me that is fine.
Hopefully speak soon.

Hi…I’m really sorry to hear your news…you will get more informed replies than mine but if you have fewer tumours gamma knife is often a preferred option to whole brain radiotherapy.
Good Luck with your treatment…x.x.
Hi Bubbly,
sorry to hear your news, it always seems more scary when we hear the word brain mets. I have met a couple of women in clinic who had rt and after recovering from treatment are still doing fine. That is not much help to you I am sure you are worried sick. Good to hear you are home now and wishing you well with your next treatments.
Love Debsxxx
Hi Girls
Thank you so much for your comments they really do make a difference.
I have lots of clusters apparently so no op they are just zapping the whole brain then i have to wait six weeks for results unless the symptoms dont go.
I found out coz I thought i had a migraine but then was taken in the hos for the where they did tests straight away.
