He will have a hospital stay of about 3-4 days and will receive high dose methotrexate.  I am just wondering what we should expect?  Is there anything he should do/eat to help kill this cancer or minimize the side effects of chemo? Please help. Thanks.   Jaimy Tue, 09 Oct 2007 00:00:00 GMT my husband was diagnosed with same in dec 07 , methertrexate is not pleasant main effect for him was mouth sores and thrush, he had a scan after chemo which was completley clear . radio therapy has been harsh on him , loss of appetite and fatigue ! when he was diagnosed he was told it is most cureable brain cancer. did he have a biopsy and where will he have treatment! picses Thu, 29 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT
