Glioblastoma stage 4

I have been recently diagnosed with glioblastoma stage 4 an aggressive form of brain cancer. I have undergone a craniotomy 3 weeks ago, and they manaaged to remove 95%. Going forward im due to start my chemo and radiotherapy on the 2nd sept 2025 continuous for 6 weeks straight.im hoping there are positive outcomes and stories to help with me and my family be in a better position to deal with this 

  • Hi  

    Im sorry about your diagnosis. My cancer was totally different to yours so I can't really help. If you haven't done so have a look in macmillan forum, it is split into the different cancers so its easier to connect with people who have the same as you. Sending hugs. Xx

  • Hi Jono, I’ve got skin cancer so no direct experience but a friend of mine was diagnosed with glioblastoma in 2019 and is still leading an active fulfilling life, enjoys being with family, goes on long fishing trips with buddies etc, though I think they say ‘management rather than cure’ and he had to retire early. He’s in the US so his treatment may not have been the same as what you’d get here. The fact they got 95% sounds encouraging, do the medics think that’s good?
