Title: Has anyone with MS had GK treatment?
Post by: sally on July 31, 2006, 09:15:52 am

I'm having Gk treatment in 3 weeks for a small IAN and when I met
with the neurosurgeon who will be working with the radiologist he
stated that there was an unknown factor as to whether GK would
affect my MS.  The neurologist said to go ahead.  I'm not on any meds
for the MS.  My symptoms are sensory, fatigue, some double vision and
spasticity of my right leg and arm.

Sally,
I would get a second and maybe third opinion.  I was diagnosed with MS after the surgery, but all  previous MRI's pointed in that direction as well as symptoms for the past ten years.  No meds for the MS for me yet.  I have too many allergies to use what is available right now.  I have three pairs of different glasses, a cane, a walker and a lot of bruises and broken things in my house.  I have a friend with MS who takes Meds and still sky dives, a passion of mine I can only watch now.  I will keep you in my prayers.

Hi Sally

I can't answer your question, but having a daughter with MS and "brain lesions" which is associated with the MS and depending on where the lesions are determines some of symptoms.
I would wonder if it would have any effect on any lesions you might have?

You might want to post your question on the cyberknife board.  They would probable have the answers that you're looking for.  You  have to register and pick a section to post under, example
Brain section.

Hopes this helps.

Best to you
