WE found out my Dad had a brain tumor 1/1/2006, nice way to start off the new year! He had surgery on Jan 3, and the biopsy showed it was a psuedotumor. They told us he would make a full recovery and the tumor would not grow back. Well 5 weeks later his tumor grew back to the size of a baseball. He had a second surgery 6 weeks after the first one. This time the biopsy showed he had a glioblastoms. Two weeks after the 2nd surgery the MRI showed his tumor was back and the size of a baseball again. He is now 4 weeks post 2nd surgery and the doctors have finally started him on radation and temador. He is on high levels of temador he is to take 1 temador every day for the next 42 day, the same length of his radation. He is due to have another MRI in 3 weeks. My question is has anyone else ever heard of such high levels of temador being given? I understand his tumor is a fast growing agressive tumor, but it seems very extreme - and is it safe at those levels? Lindahad
