MRI results
« on: August 02, 2007, 08:02:10 am »
As much as I like being right, in this case I would have been glad to be wrong.  I had another MRI last Friday and my AN has grown 1.2mm since April.  Also, since this MRI was more detailed than the first, they were able to give me a more accurate size, which is 15mm.  With luck, the darned thing should be zapped before the end of the month.

Although technically tumor growth is bad news...I'm feeling encouraged because finally we're doing something to stop this thing!  Plus, I was right!

Betsy,                                                                                                                                                                                     

Even though I felt somewhat forced to seek treatment on my 8mm AN, because of insurance issues I do not regret getting it done.  Even though I'm not symptom free it is a load off my mind to know I stopped the bugger.  Good luck!
