Not all brain cancers are glioblastoma. They are the worst. My loved one had surgery two days after glioblastoma diagnosis. That and radiation gave her 8 months of life. I still miss her.

My husband collapsed at home unexpectedly. Tests in the ER showed he had an inoperable Stage 4 GBM. He died 15 days later. He had no symptoms before he collapsed. Similar scenario to your friend.

I do so far. The oncologists were surprised the remaining tumor went away and has not returned. If she remains cancer free at the 2 year mark, we will tell the oncologist about the fenbendazole.

In this case, it looks like the image was asked to be repeated and it was not.

Apparently it had been scanned several times, as it says the doctor said all of the scans show it going back 12 years. You must remember that getting a scan done in G.B. is not like it is done here. You have to wait several months, perhaps even years to get it done, which may explain the 4 year separation from 2010 to 2014. Free healthcare is not what the leftists want you to believe it is.

While what you say is true, do you not think that the doctor should have said something such as, we see something suspicious so I want you to have another scan done in a year?

Cancer free? WOW! That is amazing! My friend died around 20 years ago so I assume they made big advances since then in treatment, but wow God bless her congratulations let’s pray she is kept cancer free. Has she regained the ability to speak?

Wow so sorry to hear that. Yes that sounds exactly the same, same no symptoms as well, it’s horrifying.

Absolutely, and I hope it had been said. However, in the US, even if that was said and the patient “forgot” to follow up, the onus is still on the medical team for not getting it done.
