The first Lomustine treatment was 4/2/2021 and, so far, no side effects at all. An MRI is planned for 5/11/2021 to see if any changes before the second treatment is given. The plan is to take 230 mg every six weeks. There was a recent article talking about a new drug that could be game changing for brain cancer treatment.
Here is the link: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2021/apr/11/early-findings-show-new-drug-could-be-game-changing-for-brain-cancer-treatment It says patients with a defect in the Pten gene could benefit the most.

Holding hope in my hands with you, @otis123. Please remind me, does your husband have the Pten gene?
