MRI is coming up on May 1st. Feeling the stress taking over...Ben's mom is worried enough for all of us, wish she wasn't! Positive thoughts. If you don't have cancer in your life, MRI week is a bit nerwracking.
He will get an MRI which takes around 45 minutes long, he will get dye put into him to show any cancer in his brain, it lights up.
Then we have to wait days for another appt with the Dr. to find out the results, during that time, his film will be looked at by Drs at a tumor board and they will all put in their input.
If things are stable meaning no changes, the cancer is still there but nothing changed GOOOD! We can breathe until next time. This happens to be his first one 6 months out, so it's been longer and it is scary.
We have no idea what to expect. If it does come back if it's in the same spot or elsewhere, bigger, etc. He has been having headaches. And vomited that one night with a bad mirgraine. We didn't do anything about it because the flu is going around! So hopefully it's nothing!
Thinking positive thoughts.
If recurrance happens, that could mean surgery, chemo...he has already had surgery and radiation...this is common and it will happen at one point in time or more. It's if his body can handle it all that's what it entails.
I hate brain cancer!
