Title: Stopped Growing Again?
Post by: LizAN on May 06, 2012, 08:06:42 pm
I have a question that is just for the W&W crowd.

Has anyone on this list had a tumor that did not grow for the first 6 months, then grew rapidly, then stopped growing and stabilized for a year or more after that?

Mine shrank by 1 mm in the first six months.  Then it grew 4.4 mm in the next 14 months.  Now it is at 12.4 mm, and I'm not sure what to do.  I'm guessing Dr. Slattery is going to recommend surgery when I talk to him on Wednesday.

Thanks in advance,
Liz
