Feel like I had to use the title, as what I am about to say has already caused a somewhat mixed reaction from the people I've told. Basically , there has been a change of plan.
I was phoned yesterday evening by the neuro team at Addenbrookes. They'd looked at the contrast scan (I had a week ago) and decided surgery was not in my best interests.
To clarify, that doesn't mean they can't operate, rather that they think I can be better served by other treatment, in my case Chemo. I already knew I'd be having chemo, this means I don't need yet another risky operation, which I'm choosing to see as a positive! Plus I can have all my treatment at Norwich under the supervision of my lovely oncologist who I've had the last three years- no horrible long trips to Cambridge!
In other news, think the steroid might have finally started to kick in, as for the first day in the last two weeks , I haven't felt dizzy- results all round!
