Hi @goldengirl2, I'm tagging @stayinghopeful so that hopefully she will see that your question was meant for her.

I'm glad that they were able to remove the tumor in the cerebellum with clear margins. Did you get two different opinions from the doctors: one saying to follow-up with radiation and the other suggesting to watch and wait? What are you considering?

Stereotactic radiation and Keytruda kept it at bay for 2 years. Recurrence in March spotted an routine scan of this year and treated with radiation and Lenvima, which is approved for uterine cancer. So far so good. Remaining hopeful. Good luck!
