I had brain surgery 6 years. 80% of tumor was removed. The remainder of tumor had already grown in to an area that was unsafe to remove. It is malignant, grade II astocytoma but slow growing. So 6 years I chose not to do any treatment. Now my Dr wants me to do chemo because my seizures are increasing. I do not want to do this. Could a better diet help me?
Hello. I have been through your question and understand your concern. Grade II astrocytoma is not a malignant tumor. It can become, but since it is a grade II it is not considered malignant.
There is no diet preventing seizures. If it has recurred I recommend another surgery and have histology. Then absolutely Chemotherapy has very good benefits on preventing the seizures.
Greetings
