We know the tumor is in a slightly different area than it was originally. He is in treatment (Temodar for the second time) for the third recurrence of his tumor. We have always been told it is in an area where surgery has not been an option. The oncologist does say he believes it is a higher grade. We think he believes it is glioblastoma but he won't say that definitely without doing another biopsy.
A month ago my husband (41) had a tumor resection of a GBM in the left temporal/frontal lobe. He is still recovering from surgery and has begun cancer treatment (temodar& radiation) a week ago. He has a previous accident injury where he has struggled with neck pain for ten years. He has been on suboxone for probably 7 years now. He is currently taking his suboxone but is not getting any relief for his head pain.
Patient made decision to treat his anaplastic astrocytoma with surgery and Temodar only. No radiation! What is the prognosis for this 33 yr.old male.
Since the diagnosis of Glioblastoma grade 4 in August, my husband has had the tumor removed and completed the round of radiation and chemotherapy - temodar. Recently I have noticed him being very short fused and argumentative. The slightest thing sets him off as if he had been personally attack. I have also noticed depression setting in. I'm assuming this is all part of the treatment and diagnosis.
One thing I can tell you is beware of certain chemos, like temodar , it can cause lukemia in people with NF, and radiation is also a no go for people with NF. Good luck.
I've had a problem with chronic constipation for years, these last 8-10 it has gotten better to when I go once a day. Now, I found out I was pregnant last week Monday and I've been eating the same way plus prenatal belly bar vitamins. Now these last 3 days I haven't #2d but I urinate 10-15 times a day. What can I use? Right now I eat a pack of fresh express spinach a day, more than enough friut 1 gallon of water and kashi granola. Any suggestions?
my doctor told me to take miralax twice a day to help with constipation
Ask your pediatrician. My son had that issue and I was told to give him warm water or mix prune juice with water in a bottle. You can try a slither of ivory soap too.
