Doctor agreed to reduce Keppra from 750mg to 500mg, reduce Dexa from 6mg to 4mg, and prescribed the antidepressants to help my husband's depression, He also suggested the trial of a lumbar drain, but after talking to neurologist (the doctor who did surgery for my husband), he didn't think this procedure was suitable for my husband, nor would it bring him any benefit.

So, we are not sure what's next step our doctor is going to take. I am waiting for him to get back to me. My husband has not been taking chemo pill for 3 months due to his weak condition. Now he can hardly walk and needs to use wheelchair all the time. The PT/OT/Speech therapist should start next week.

Thanks,

Rachel
