The dr's released him. They won't do a biopsy with out an MRI. They can't do an MRI because he has an old stimulator and the wires from that go up to his brain stem. they can't remove it for some reason they've not said and they can't do the MRI. So their plan of action is to let him go home and do CT scans every month to watch for growth. If it grows they are gonna do radiation. Doesn't make any sense to me at all!

sounds like hes between a rock and a hard place.....could he get a secong opinion?

[midnight_starr]

[LisanAndy]

Ditto! ((HUGS))

that's EXACTLY what i told my mom! But she said that there had been 5 radiologist, a neurosurgeon and the neurologist who all looked at the scans and said the same thing. I STILL think they should go to a different area (there's a good place about an hour away) and get another opinion.

In total agreement with the second opinion.
