not me personally but someone had told me about FSR (Novalis) that failed and tumor had to be surgically removed.  I will try to find the thread.

what is your current MRI report showing on size, location, etc? Do you have a copy of the report that you can type (verbatum) here so we can better help answer (or try our best)?  That will be most helpful.

Hang in there!

I believe Phyllis was trying to get info from your most current MRI, not the pre-treatment one.
