Optimistic! I have residual also from post surgery/treatment. Doesn't mean it is active. The two lesions, could they be scare tissue? Ask the Doc's. I would guess,your still on treatment? What type? Are you seeing a specialist ( neuronocology )

Nkow,after seeing my ONCOLOGIST on 4/11/08,MyWhite cells are too low to start TEMODAR.The count is 1000.They tell me the cells will naturally come back,and if not,they wii take a different course of action.

P.S. There is only one leision,it may be scar tissue,etc.

I feel great,with small bouts of seizures in my hand,where they always are.I do take meds.for that.
