living with a shunt? After effects of Radiation? and other therapies.
 
Greetings all you like situated souls. Here we are. We got the heavier packs. This is where i am at...Was diagnosed with a Germinoma brain tumor back in 2009 after getting back from a world trip. First started a less harmful therapy called Antineoplastin therapy. Shrunk it in half. Then i was put on steroids and the therapy ceased effecting the tumor. Went to radiation and shrunk it away. after two and a half weeks of it.

Now current time i am dealing with my shunt and just quality of life. I feel like im on a wave i feel real good sometimes and then the wave dips way low and i will spend the whole day in bed feeling royally shiite... I got my shunt adjusted and that helped the sever head aches . But i still have the mood swings of feelings feeling good feeling bad two to three times in a day. It is exhausting and frustrating. Hoping i could get some input from folks who have any like experience. Cheers to ya all. God Bless us all too. And don't ya know im just tryin to dance to that all too crazy beat of life. All the best.
