        My doctor is really pushing the medical marijuana and it's benefits. So I am looking into it.

        gamma knife was done after the first 3 tumors, then WBRT was done when 9 more showed up 6 weeks later. Now there is 3 new ones two weeks later.

                          I have had terrible headaches and leg pain so bad after Yervoy treatments that they prescribed Percocet for and that worked for me, the leg symptoms only last 2-3 days but I was unable to walk without the pain meds.

                                I thought maybe I should provide more information.

                                in November they performed a MRI/ CT SCAN of the body with no tumors. Previously there was the original site on the back and the. A recurrence in left axillary lymph node in June complete removal. In November they also performed Brain MRI which discovered 3 small tumors these were treated with radiation the second week of November. I also started Yervoy at that time, 5 weeks later I started to have headaches more than usual and ear ringing hand shaking clumsiness, they did another MRI 9 more tumors were found. Whole brain radittion started on Christmas Eve.
