@yang2, I can imagine this is scary. I hope you read the helpful posts that @riggonian @thomhorowitz and @mkoch wrote to @leell58. It sounds like you and @leell58 are in a similar stage of diagnosis and getting a treatment plan and/or second opinion.

@leell58, how did your second opinion go?

@yang2, did the neurosurgeon suggest watch and wait or are they recommending surgery or radiation due to the symptoms?

My second opinion was to stay on TMZ for a full year. Primary thought 6 months was enough, but with second opinion Dr wit pts 7 years post op, I will stick out a few
More rounds of TMZ. Only issue is it drops
My platelets so no sharp knives when I cook

@colleenyoung , the first neurosurgeon suggested wait & see with every 6 months MRI. I had my brain MRI on Monday and Tuesday my doctor called me about the result. I booked for an appointment on 28th March for another neurologist.
