Gamma Knife while on Avastin

My daughter has been told she needs Gamma Knife for an unusual spot found in the middle of her brain. She is currently on Avastin for the tumors that are in her left frontal lobe. The Avastin is working for that area, but not for the new one. My question is has anyone gotten Gamma Knife while on Avastin?  If you have please tell me how you did good and bad. Thank you.

    Hi Ninamom

    I just start taking Avastin today and I am also preparing for the gamma-knife.

    I do hope everything goes fine with your daughter.

    Never give up!

    Peace and love.
