Good Evening! Thanks for all the useful information. How did your MRI go the end of June? Did your tumors shrink at all. My sister has an appointment tomorrow morning with Dr O'Neill at Mayo. She flew there tonight from Atlanta. She has seen 2 neurosurgeons here. One recommended Cyber Knife, the other Gamma Knife. She had a 5cm meningioma surgically removed in 2001. Her most recent MRI shows 3 new tumors. One near optic nerve on left, other 2 on right. She is very worried about long term affects of Radiation but really does not want to go thru surgery again.
Hope you had good results!!
Thank You,
Nancy
We'll be thinking of you and your sister tomorrow, Nancy. Best of luck to her. Please keep us posted on what she finds out.
I am so happy she is there at Mayo. I know firsthand how wonderful Dr. O'Neil is since he has walked me through 10++ years of living with my left frontal meningiomas. I indeed trust him with my life and follow everything he tells me. It is SO refreshing not to have to second guess all those second rate Docs that just scare a person into reacting and want to immediately set you up for surgery!! Best of luck to your sister @nancye3 . She is in awesome hands!!!
