YEAR = 2005
TOTAL MASSES DISCOVERED = 15 to 20
TYPE OF TREATMENT = Full brain radiation
TOTAL MASSES UNDETECTABLE AFTER TREATMENT = 14 to 19
TOTAL REMAINING MASSES FOR THAT YEAR = 1
NOTES These masses caused seizure. Had 18 treatments of full brain radiation. Last mass shrunk 50% and became inactive. Dr. Hahn told me on 1-22-07 that it was 15 - 20 masses. I thought it was only 5.

YEAR = 2006
TOTAL MASSES DISCOVERED = 3
TYPE OF TREATMENT = Etoposide chemotherapy
TOTAL MASSES UNDETECTABLE AFTER TREATMENT = 2
TOTAL REMAINING MASSES FOR THAT YEAR = 1
NOTES These masses are in cerebellum. Caused balance issues.

YEAR = 2007
TOTAL MASSES DISCOVERED = 4
TYPE OF TREATMENT = Etoposide chemotherapy
TOTAL MASSES UNDETECTABLE AFTER TREATMENT = 0
TOTAL REMAINING MASSES FOR THAT YEAR = 4
NOTES 2 are in Cerebellum. 1 is in the Basal Ganglia in the Cerebrum. 1 is in the Parietal Lobe. Will continue with Etoposide.

GRAND TOTAL OF MASSES
22 - 27

GRAND TOTAL OF UNDETECTABLE MASSES
17 - 22

GRAND TOTAL OF REMAINING MASSES
5

SUMMARY
THE LAST MASS FROM 2005 BECAME UNDETECTABLE IN 2007. THERE IS 1 REMAINING MASS FROM 2006.

THE 4 NEW MASSES IN 2007 ARE SMALL. IN TOTAL, THERE ARE 3 IN THE CEREBELLUM, 1 IN THE BASAL GANGLIA IN THE CEREBRUM, AND 1 IN THE PARIETAL LOBE. WILL CONTINUE WITH ETOPOSIDE AS THE TREATMENT PLAN.

I was going to take it out today but when I turned the key absolutely nothing happened. At least I hope it's the battery and not the alternator. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
