Yesterday I went to get an MRI done and since the Neurosurgeon's office is in the same facility
at Jefferson Hospital in PA I was also seen by him because the headaches had intensified. Prior
to that I was prescribed oral steroids and I am happy to say that the pounding, pressure pain
in the back of my head is gone. I do get headaches but I am able to tolerate it and with the
medication (percocet) which I have to take also because of my chronic back pain I am feeling
much better.
The Neurosurgeon said that for now no surgery as the tumor is the same in size (not growing)
and I am not having any other symptoms other than headaches, the bleeding has stopped but
will continue to monitor. I am scheduled for a repeat MRI/MRA in 3 months and see the progress.
So again thanks to all my DR1 friends for your support during my hour of need. And I just want to say
that Bronzie is back!
