Hi All,
Well I'm having another MRI tomorrow to check the tumors I had back in December. The largest (occipital) was removed surgically, then they did cyberknife around that whole area as well as 2 small spots in the frontal lobes.
The last MRI I had two months ago was OK, so praying this will be also.
Mine were metastasis from lung cancer, so all checkups are scary.
Had a lot of dizziness/off-balance lately so I wonder if the cancer has returned in the brain. I tell myself it's only allergies or my TMJ causing the dizziness, but realistically it could be the cancer.
So just came here because I'm scared today....which makes the TMJ a whole lot worse!
Thanks for Listening.

Hiya hun,

How did the mri and checkup go? When do you get the mri results?
Alot of thing's can cause dizzyness,as you know , im dizzy everyday nearly lol as i suffer from really low blood pressure..Im so sorry you have had so much happen to you, Did you have dizzyness with your last tumor? i know how scared you are! I havent even been told that i have a brain tumor yet , but i am so worried while waiting for results and stuff, as i know my own body and i just know i have one.

Please tell us how it all goes.
You are a strong person,you have got through alot,chances are even if it did reamerge, you can fight this one also!

Hi dizzymoo
Firstly, no I didn't have dizziness when the tumor first appears, just a little vision spot that was off. So I went to my opthalmologist, who couldn't find anything. Really found that was there after the lung cancer, and they asked
me if anything else was going on, and I said I had this vision thing...so they freaked, and sent me to MRI right away.
Anyway it went AWESOME today. those 3 spots I had are just not there anymore. Well, just a wee ghost of a thing, but that's it! Praise the Lord!!!
Two months ago they were still pretty visible, even to me!! I'm ecstatic and praising God! Good thinks DO happen. I wish I could tell you how many.
ANywway, I know you will be fine too. Dizziness can be so many things. My neuro wasn't concerned about my dizziness today at all, and said that is a symptom of so many things. Im' bettin gon my TMJ, which is horrible at the moment!
Good wishes to you and let me know when you get results!
I'll be praying for you!

That is brilliant news!!!! I am so happy for you! I bet your walking on air hehe, Congrats! I have heard of TMJ , it is a very intresting illness! id never heard of it before i came onto this site lol, somebody thought i may have it, but i dont think so.
I dont think my results are going to be good news at all, but i will make sure when i find out i post them on here,well...Hopefully,depends how depressed i am afterwards.
Anyway, I really am so happy that your doing well! It made my day :D xxx

Now go and relax!! lol xx

Thank You dizzymoo,
I can't relax! I have too much living to do!!:D And yes, it's good to get every little bit of good news when you have cancer! I was walking a little straighter yesterday after the good news. It does make you walk on air!

Hellasrules!!!! I'm delighted for you! Praise God indeed! What a relief - what a blessing.
I'm sorry I didn't see your earlier post to say you were on your way, I would have said a prayer for your peace of mind.

I had dizziness as a symptom of my brain tumour --- and oddly enough I still have the symptom even after all this time. It seems to sometimes be influenced by how much coffee I drink and how tired I am.... but it isn't really predictible.

Congratulations -and may you continue to have these super check ups!

Hi Cas!
Thank You. It's good to see you again. I think my dizziness is just my TMJ acting up badly right now. So I just need to relax and get that back in order.
I may have missed it, but did you get the results of your MRI yet? I have chemobrain and have a poor memory at the moment. ( It's Very annoying!)
I wish you all good check ups too.
Faith
