If it is not that then the questions to ask are; are you throwing up? what do you mean by 'sick’? do you have diarrhea? Do you get blown up with your abdomen distended so that you look pregnant or do you just 'feel' distended? Why not respond back to me OK?"

Any nutritional strategies or holistic methods to help treat brain tumors or their symptoms. Anything to reduce anxiety about surgery and outcome. By the way I rarely use my cell phone.
