Greetings Kamama62-

I was treated at Mayo in MN. Started with Gamma in 2019 - deemed to be a failure (part died party kept growing) so I had translab surgery in 2023.  Let me know what questions you have!

After the Gamma treatment didn’t fully succeed, how did they help you transition into surgery—was it a smooth process?

Sorry for the delayed response hypothesisgrumpy.  Just seeing this.  I would have to say I did not require help with the transition in the direction of care.  After learning that the part near my brain stem was continuing to grow, I knew it had to come out.  While they supplied materials regarding surgery and aftercare, I leaned more on this website for support in what to expect and how to prepare. 

There are minor after effects of surgery, but nothing major.  Eventually is has become a new normal. And the best part is that since my check up this year, they said I don't have to have another visit or MRI for 5 years!
