Bonjour,
First of all, thank you for your answers, Rupert, Stella and LakeErie ! I don't know exactly how to answer separatly, so I write a commun answer, sorry.
It is so important to discover that I am not alone and that it is possible to have news from others people who know this sickness.
So, if I understand correctly, before accepting the surgery, I still have to learn more about the possibilities for the gamma knife ... but probably, I will have surgery ...and GK (or CK)! Actually, the surgeon told me that he thought, if possible, not to remove the whole tumor so as not to damage the facial nerve, and then use CK. In Lyon (my city), there is only CK and so I will have to meet a surgery in Paris (GK) to understand what is the best.
In France, everything is paid for by the social system (the State), fortunately because I am a bookseller in a small bookstore and could not pay me expensive care.
I have two other questions: in some cases, is it possible to have GK or CK before surgery ? And can CK or GK reduce the size of large tumors or just stop their expansion?
Thank you !
Merci beaucoup !
