Re: [nzbraintumour] Temadol

 Hi there Kath,
Colette kept on taking it for the whole 18mths - even though she had no complications or regrowth............. but I do realise that her situation is quite different with her living in the USA.   I know that is hard here in NZ because of the cost involved - but we have to hope that it is released soon for a longer time frame.  Also worth  finding out, that if they DO release it for a longer time frame, and one  has gone off it after a certain period of  time, will  you then be able to go back onto it again up to the new time frame allowed for   ........ thinking of you this week with your scan coming up - my positive thoughts are with you both.   Take care.

Subject: [nzbraintumour] Temadol

Hi everyone,
Just a quick question for those that have had temadol.....Once the
first 6 month cycle has finished, and the results are good did you keep
on taking it? Or did you wait for more growth? I was just wondering.
Nick has his scan this week and results of it next week.
Thanks
Kath
