                    I know he is. But I don’t think he understands how bad it is. I hope I’m wrong about this but my instincts say I’m not

                                Yes we had the same problem. Along with a bad bad headache. They upped his dex again and waited for swelling to go down . then a few weeks later we started cutting back again and dis fine. We started on 12mg of dex a day to 2 mg a day.. You shouldn’t be on them,long term but when you dealing with the brain the side effects of dex are small potatoes. When his brain was ready he did fine cutting back. His side effects were joint pain anger sick to his stomach and sleepy. Also a fever because he was on yearvoy and dex will keep a fever down. Best of,luck to you guys By the was his cancer is in brain bones lungs soft tissue. Lineing of stomach
