Hi Karen,

My husband was diagnosed with 3 brain mets and now 8 months later with 10 spots. He had WBR and srs on the one that caused his problems 8 months ago. Now they refuse to give him any more srs treatment without a proper explanation except that he has had too much radiation already. But that doesn't make sense as they were looking to give him more. They only treat up to 3 at a time yet I see on this board so many that have had more treated. I am looking for a second opinion. We are in Canada and maybe their protocol is different. I want at least a more definitve explanation before I give up.

Do you mind telling me how many of yours were treated at the same time and what size were they.

Thanks

Anna

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately my husband died yesterday from a rapid growth of his brain mets,

He was inpirational in his approach to living with cancer.  How I hate this disease.  

Good luck to you!
