Regrowth after surgery

(1/1)

DDWILT:
This is my first post. Not sure if I am doing this correctly. Anyhow. I was diagnosed with a 3.7 cm AN in February 2015 and surgery in March 2015 (doc thought he got 50-60 percent of tumor) and upon getting 6mo MRI it would be decided if I needed an additional surgery or Gamma Knife radiation. I just had my MRI I have the disc (which I looked at) and received the report today and the tumor grew to back to 3 cm. I am devastated. WAiting on a call from my neurosurgeon. Everything I read says that AN are normally slow growing. The remaining part of the tumor was just a curved piece at the top. Now it's a ball again. I have daily headaches, my balance is wobbly and my tongue is super tingly.trying to research as much as I can about Regrowth but there isn't much out there



Note:  I moved this to a new topic so it would be seen by more readers.  Thanks.  Clarice
