Okay, so I dragged my tired old ass onto the 4:45am bus to Boston (thankfully I bought a little travel pillow, makes it easier to nap when your head is not getting smacked against the window). Had my MRI done, then walked around for a couple of hours, and then had the CT scan and got the mask made (it is a plastic wire mesh that forms around the face and is then attached to the table to keep you from moving around). I had a meeting with the doctors and nurses and my treatment will be on October 2nd. The results are that I should only need one treatment with the cyberknife. The "thing" on the front left lobe is still just that, and unidentifiable "thing". They say that it is either another tumor or it is a blood vessel. The doctor said that it could be in such a position that it is almost like looking down a straw. So, since I am going to have to have new scans every two months we are just going to have to keep and eye on it and see what it does, if anything.

The unpleasant part of this is that this weekend I have to start taking Decadron (a steroid to prevent brain swelling, which also means weight gain as well as hot flashes) as well as an anti-seizure medication in case the Decadron does not control the swelling.

I am doing much better knowing that things are now moving again to address this issue. But now i have to make a decision on what music to take with me (they will pipe any CD's I want to listen to into the room - cool)

So, things are on the move again and I feel good that I am now moving in the direction to kill this bugger in my brain.(!)
 
Such a brave man!:=D: (*8*)

So what music are you going with?

You should freak 'em out and bring something really hard core like Metallica!..|

You've been in my prayers and .......keep up that positive attitude...you are truly an amazing individual!(*8*)

Glad you are doing better......onward to being healthy!!!!(!)
 
Well, at least you only have one session with the cyber knife. I know there are more drugs to take, but I think it all sounds good. Granted I don't know a damn thing about medicine... well, you know what I mean. ;) Either way, you know I'm in your corner and you're still in my prayers. Hang in there Peg! (*8*)
 
That sounds like good news. I know the trip to Boston can be a pain in the ass. Why can't we have decent health care here on the cape? We will have to get together one of these days for coffee. (I haven't crossed the bass river bridge in months)
 
That's ok mark1111, unless it is for medical i never venture further than the Bass River or the Sagamore bridges, but yeah, coffee is a must sometime.
 
Thanks for the update. We'll all be with you in spirit on the 2nd, sending every positive vibe your way.

May the cyberknife work the wonders for which it was invented!

(*8*)
 
Pegasus...you know my thoughts and prayers are with you....I hope the cyberknife works as it is invented!
 
Godspeed my friend. May the angels of medicine perform their greatest work.

(*8*)
 
Hey, Pegs. I hop on the board now and then. I am glad to hear good news. Still sending good vibes your way. Take care.
 
Best wishes and Godspeed. Take along something that really inspires you, will help in the outcome. Glad to hear things are moving again. The waiting is the worst in any situation but especially this.

Thinking of you and praying for you for the best results ever.

You are a fine and brave man, Pegasus, please keep us posted.
 
With all the people here pulling for you, that procedure on the 2nd just has to work. So have you decided on the music yet? If not, what are your choices?
 
Well everyone has said it haven't they. I always get to your updates last in the line.

So I will say what I always do that you are constantly in my thoughts.

Take the sound track of "Pricilla" well that is if you can boggy your arse but keep your head still at the same time. :-)
 
As the other guys have said, Good luck for the 2nd. I have everything crossed for you.

As for music, take along something by Julie Andrews! She is gorgeous, she's light, she's a friend of ours. And she will have you singing in the aisles within minutes!!

Take care, Pegasus. Thinking of you always.
