Haven't posted in a while and thought it was time.  Had gamma knife on October 12, 2012.  Four  months in I had a lot of facial pain.  Doctor put me on steroids, and they worked.  Went today for follow up MRI at UVA.  Tumor is stable and not showing any signs of growth.  It also appears to not be taking the contrast like it did before gamma.  Doctor said these are good indications the tumor is dying.  Feel great.  Just thought I would update for anyone wondering about gamma.  Go back in 6 months for next MRI.
