Post Op Update

We saw the surgeon today. The speck in the brain is metal. If Scott were to have an MRI it would at like a swizzle stick in the brain. MRI's are out for now and the future. This worries me because MRI's are a way of showing progression and regression in this disease. So Dr. Nick is going to have to convince me CT's are OK.
The surgeon said that Scott has exceeded his expectations. He was thrilled to see Scott walking with a cane. I told him while I was trying to comprehend everything I was watching his body language and I didn't think he wanted to operate on Scott and he said he didn't. He didn't have any hope. I thanked him for doing the surgery. He apologized for the metal that was in there but, I told him it was a small price to pay for saving Scott's life.
Dr. Nick said that after reviewing the post op CT scan that there is a mild hemorrhage and we wouldn't be able to began the Avastain for now. The Avastain can cause hemorrhaging, so if there is already mild hemorrhaging it will only progress. Dr. Nick has a new game plan and we are waiting to hear from the nurse. It still involves chemotherapy.
