Well hang in there; the Gamma knife is good stuff. Just 3 months ago I also had deep cell brain tumor taken out,, and before that I have had 3 operations all over for other tumors, I have stage 4 secondary cancer or metastases melanoma. Little speech problem and now lost feeling in 3 right hand fingers,. I am taken a chemo drug called ‘INTERFURON” Might check with you Dr. about it?
