Hello and thanks for posting

I'm sorry to read about your diagnosis but pleased you've recovered well from your surgery. I appreciate you having questions about your situation.

Although, glioblastomas can be very difficult to treat it is fair to say that every patients outlook is different depending on the stage (size and extent) and grade ( how fast growing the tumour is ), the treatment given and how well the cancer responds.

As I say every patient’s situation is different so even if I knew your stage and grade of your tumour and treatment plan it will only be your own specialist team who can say what they hope treatment will achieve and what your prognosis may be. So do speak to them about this when you get the chance.

Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Kind regards,

Celene

Hello and thank you for your message  it’s stage 4 glioblastoma 

I had the same happen to me, had tumour removed in April, said it’s glioblastoma grade 4, started radiotherapy today and said won’t be taking chemo tab and I said why and they said need to talk to doctor, I’m also worried they don’t think I’m worth it, and Iv read chemo tablet helps the radiation work better
