Another Hurtle

Scott had his MRI today. The tumor is stable but, the cerebal artery is swollen and has caused a midline shift. This is a problem because if the midline continues to shift eventually it will have no where to go and could either cause a stroke or death.
We have an appt. with Dr. Nick Friday Apirl 3rd. We don't know what is causing the swelling or what the treatment is. If dexamethasone is an option - we hope it is not our only option. Scott does not want to take it again because of the damage it has done to his body. But, if it is his only option then we will have no choice.
