Has anyone here had Gamma Knife?
« on: May 27, 2011, 05:53:59 pm »
I have a Facial Neuroma which was up against my brainstem and had 40% of it removed last year. Now I need Gamma Knife Radiation. I'm just wondering if anyone here has had Gamma Knife Radiation and would share their experience with me. Thanks!

Kim ~

Many of our members have undergone the Gamma Knife treatment.  I suggest you check out the Post-Treatment section for some accounts of GK patients.  Here is thread I found (using the 'search' feature) that may interest you. http://www.anausa.org/smf/index.php?topic=12572.0   Its a start - but do some searching on your own and I'm confident you'll find the kind of information you're seeking.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.
