Hello - I'm new here. I posted this on another website a couple of days ago, but haven't had any replies yet. My husband was rushed to hospital on 2nd April with what we thought was a stroke. He was initially diagnosed with a secondary brain tumour. A later MRI and biopsy confirmed GBM4. His condition has deteriorated at a mind-numbing pace. At first he had mild dysphasia and right-sided weakness in his arm and leg. Two months on he is hemiplegic but can walk a short distance with a stick and assistance. He's had three falls and his skin is super-sensitive to touch. He mostly says 'yes' or 'no', which he often mixes up and very few other words. He cannot go to the toilet unaided or turn over in bed. I'm waiting on Home Care to get in touch. He is on Keppra and 4mg Dexi (reduced gradually from an initial 16mg to 10mg) but developed a steroid psychosis - aggression, disorientation, agitation and paranoia - following considerable pain relief for shingles he got on 27th April (he clearly hasn't suffered enough....).

Anyway, he starts radio and chemo (Temozolomide) tomorrow. Assuming he tolerates the treatment, is there likely to be any relief of his symptoms? I'm not expecting a miracle (much as I would like one) but what results have others had? Thanks.
