MRI Update

Scott had his MRI yesterday @ 12:00 because it was early we were able to get the films and run them to Orlando. Dr. Nick didn't see any difference in the tumor, there was no bleeding & no sign of a stroke- Great News - Dr. Nick thinks there maybe some underline swelling in the tumor area that's causing Scott's extreme fatigue and his left side weakness. Dr. Nick has stopped the Temedor (Chemo) until Scott gets back on track neurologically. He has prescribed Dexamethasone - an anti-inflammatory to decrease the swelling. The swelling maybe post seizure from that last seizure he experienced while doing the seizure study in December.
Dr. Nick has also thinks it is a good idea that Scott - he is to weak to make any sudden moves. Thank you all for the prayers.
