Pressure is off brain so no more headaches and doctor Mrugala says no bleeding in the brain so that is good.

@bjh369, I'm sorry to hear that the glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has returned. I'm bringing @marcyprof @nursnis and @amherst into this discussion.
As you prepare for new treatment with Avastin (bevacizumab), I thought you might appreciate this indepth Avastin FAQ document from the National Brain Tumor Society http://blog.braintumor.org/files/public-docs/avastin-web-faqs-and-overview-final.pdf
When do you start the IV infusions?
Thanks so much for the info. Any info is always welcome.

Go in the 12th for my 3rd infusion of Avastin and now back on tramamolizide. Bloodwork will be done on 12th so I hope body will tolerate medication.

Got bloodwork at Mayo Clinic Chandler which made sense at least because the clinic is just down the road from us and Mayo Clinic Phoenix is 60 miles away. So that was nice and Dr Mrugala will go over the bloodwork with me tomorrow to see how I'm tolerating all this chemo…..
