Preliminary Diagnosis

Just before I was released, a junior Neurologist came to give me my release report, along with the preliminary diagnosis from 3rd September,

Tumour appears to be a malignant Astrocytoma grade III.

The full diagnosis would be given to me on 5th September following a meeting of the hospital's Tumour Board (a group of senior peers from Nuerosurgery, Nuerology, Oncology and Radio-Oncology), who would agree on a diagnosis and proposed treatment.
