Brain edema 7 months after radiation.

. I understand that this is a difficult time for you and your family. Here’s a simple breakdown of the situation: Increased Edema: The rise in swelling (edema) and the weakness in his left leg are serious signs that need attention. This could mean that the brain is reacting to the tumor or the radiation treatment. It's important to keep a close watch on these changes. Surgery: Given the new symptoms, it’s important to reassess his condition. Surgery might be an option if:    The swelling is causing major problems with movement or function.    There’s a risk of further complications.    The benefits of surgery are greater than the risks.    I suggest you discuss these options with his doctors to see if surgery is the right choice now. Corticosteroid Use: Medications like omnicortil can help reduce swelling, but they should be used carefully because long-term use can have side effects. Follow-Up Care: Regular check-ups and MRI scans are very important to monitor any changes in the tumor and surrounding areas. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Dr. K.

i have not seen the scans, but looks like surgery is the next logical step.
