What are the chances of sruvival beyond 24 months with Glioblastoma?

I didn't know but I've watched several interviews with Dr Thomas Seyfried who believes in treating glioblastoma specifically, with a state of ketosis and a keto diet.

I found him to be truthful.
He is affiliated with Boston college.

@mtstack Thank you for this info and will checkout out further but most of his equals say its an unproven and unlikely cure. Stranger things have happened however

My grandson had a glioblastoma brain tumor in his right frontal lobe at the age of three months. He is now 29. Although he has some deficits he is a wonderful young man and we are thankful to the surgeon and the doctors who treated him. Sending you our very best wishes for recovery and success with your future.

I don't know the answer to this, but I certainly understand the desire to ask the question. Would you like to give us a bit more information? Are you asking for yourself, or about someone else? If you can give some details about the situation I think you'll get a more honed response. It can be very upsetting to feel time is limited. I was told I had 1-2 years with a rare fast moving breast cancer. I'm almost at 3 1/2 years, and the truly challenging part is not trying to stay alive but to figure out how to live in the interim. I'm also going to look and see if there is a forum that covers Glioblastoma.

@parrot53 I was just wondering with regard to your grandson, did he have a low-grade glioma or was it glioblastoma?

Glioblastoma scary time

@tpq, it is hard to hear the news of a diagnosis with limited time. Your doctor can’t be absolutely certain about what will happen to you following a brain tumor diagnosis. But, they can give you an estimate, based on your tumor type and current situation.

There are some things your doctor might not be able to predict, like how well you might respond to treatment. This is why prognosis is often an ongoing process, revised at different stages in your journey.

@tpq, have you been recently diagnosed with a glioblastoma or someone you care about? What treatment has been recommended?

My son was diagnosed with giobastoma and negative "mtmp" if I have that correct. He is just finishing his first round of radiation and chemo pills. surgery only got 60% of the tumour. We wont know how the tumour has behaved until his next MRI which will be in a month. Assuming the MRI shows some shrinkage he will be put on different chemo pills five days a month for about six months. They will do an MRI every month going forward.
Thank you for following up.

@mtstack what is ketosis and keto diet?what does it include??

You might want to check out Dr. Linda Liau at UCLA. She has received recognition and a number of awards for her treatment of glioblastoma using the patients own dendritic cells. The study was published in JAMA. Dr. Ashkan at Kings College in the UK is using the same techniques. Both are world class and patient centered surgeons and researchers. The original study resulted in statistically significant overall survival and they are improving the outcomes in the process of their studies. They are waiting for approval in the UK but UCLA is providing treatment for patients as part of their research. Good luck and try to stay strong.
