Sardeans ~

I'm pleased to learn that your MRI doesn't appear to show an acoustic neuroma or other kind of tumor.  This is definitely cause for celebration!  However, it also leaves you (your doctors, really) with the challenge of finding the source of your problems.  I like your philosophic attitude and hope you'll have an answer, soon.  Thanks for your encouraging words.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

Hi Sardeans,

I share the sentiments of my moderating cohort in crime Jim (as well as others) that I am thrilled to learn you don't have an AN... and sending wellness wishes your way as you continue the search for answers... hoping they come soon and are easily fixed. Please hang in there....

Be well,
Phyl
