Treatment Decisions and Post OP Scan Results

Image
I think i'm about 3 and a half months out from my op now and just getting around to making treatment decisions, the fatigue and effects of surgery are still real and heavy, my scan results came back and were unfortunately disappointing so i felt like i needed to go with a treatment option of some sort. This will probably be a long one. its 2am and ive put it off for a few days. Scan Results Unfortunately i didnt manage to get the same slices and sequences for comparison this time. but i will do in the future hopefully. a FLAIR sequence vs t2 should be sufficient for now.  Old Scans in 6 month jumps. These are two flair slices from my post op scan about a month ago. its hard to compare because of the different slice and sequence, but to me it looks like the anterior mass is now of a similar size to 6 months post op, however it seems to be heading south deeper into the brain (making radiation much less tempting). I'm assuming my brain has changed shape significantly...
