Hi All,
  I can't believe that I am approaching a month since by GK procedure.  Outisde of feeling really, really,  fatigued several times a week I think I am doing okay.  I get occasional pains in my head that last a very short time and I believe that means the radiation is cookin'.  Overall besides the tiredness I think all is well.  I am curious did you have follow up with your physician after the GK at 4-6 weeks or did you just not see him unless a) there was a problem or b) at 6 month MRI?  I did get my report today from my primary care doctor which was pretty interesting to read, though I did not understand all of it.  Apparently I got 19 shots of radiation though.  Again, I wanted to let you all know that have written me initially that I am doing good.  I will keep you posted.
