Today i wake up early just after azan subuh. This is because we'll (me,oka-sama and otou-sama) be going to the HUSM for the appointment with the doctors to fix the date for SRS (Stereotactic Radiosurgey). After having discussions with the doctors, 4th November 2009 will be the lucky date for me.. thihihi..seriously lucky because my flight to Egypt was on 15th November 2009 so i still have 10 days to recover after the SRS. But now, i didn't want to tell more about going to Egypt.
I've been given full explanations about the SRS, the effects and the procedures also. I've also been googled some more informations about the SRS i'll be going through. How curious of me..ahaha..xD
This is some informations that i've got from the doctors and some was copied from this website.
What is SRS (Stereotactic Radiosurgery)?
SRS treats brain disorders with a precise delivery of a single, high dose of radiation in a one-day session. Focused radiation beams are delivered to a specific area of the brain to treat abnormalities, tumors or functional disorders.
What is the procedures according to my case (Cerebral AVM)
I'll be wearing a round-shaped 'frame' (i still can't find the real name on the website) on my head. It'll be screwed into my head in four holes, two at the front and two at the back (it was the real screw). After that, Brain CT Scan will be performed and also i'll be going through Angiogram again..yes, the painful procedure i've already mentioned for several times before...and the last thing is the real Radiosurgery. But, i've been told that the overall procedures will be a whole day period..that's because there will be more waiting (and wasting) time rather than the procedure itself. *sigh*
huh..i really don't have any other ideas to write about. Actually i'm already sleepy now but still trying hard to finish this post. ahh~i really can't stand it now!!! Gotta go to sleep now. I'll continue about this story tomorrow k...*phew*~
