Low grade glioma suspected

Hello all,

I'm currently 40 weeks pregnant and about 20 weeks ago had a seizure, resulting in the discovery of a brain mass suspected to be a grade 2 Oligo. I'm working with Dr. Wen at Dana Farber and the plan is to recover from birth, then move forward with surgery, etc.

I'm wondering what advice you'd offer to someone in my situation? Diet, supplements, surgeons, etc?  What off label drugs and treatments should I consider to delay or prevent recurrence? I've read through Ben Williams publications and spoken, via email, with Ben and Rich Gerber. They provided their recommended drug and supplement lists.

I've read about the DCvax-l and see its promise. I'm British and recently learned the only place to likely get it is in London. So I've reached out to them but I'm not sure they're administering it for low grade glioma?

There are also a few clinical trials out of UCSF that I may be eligible for (IMA950, Poly-ICLC with or without Variliumab or Pulsated tumour lysate with Poly-ICLC). Can anyone tell me more about those? I've read Poly ICLC shows promise.

Thank you all for your time and advice.

Maria
