I had spinal cord tumor & it was ependymoma grade 2 .am i need radiotherapy? Depends upon what your specialist says. You must have had surgery to remove the tumor you mentioned? Please go get a second, third opinion! You might need radiaton and if it is stage 2 hopefully you can kill it before it spreads to your nodes and everywhere else. Start treatment NOW before it is too late. Good question. What does your DOCTOR say? |
