Do you think I am just impatient?

Yes. :)

How long should I wait? 

At least a year, and maybe two. Radiation treatment is known to produce various swelling effects over that kind of time frame. In fact it is more likely then than later, and I wonder if you misheard the doctor. I would expect nothing significant after two years.

Welcome to the forum, Kahekili.

8 mm left AN June 2007,  CK at Stanford Sept 2007.
Hearing lasted a while, but left side is deaf now.
Right side is weak too. Life is quiet.

I have now had an MRI, and it showed that the tumor now is 21x25x25mm. I did not get the measurement last time, just got to know that it was slightly bigger. The result is being sent to the Dr. who treated me, so I am waiting to hear from them. I think the answer will be swelling and more waiting for me. I wonder how long the swelling can go on? Someone who knows?
Really hope the dam thing not is growing :( Guess it is a part of the game, but must say that I am getting tired of it.
Should love to have a positive result soon.
The good thing is that my face is better! Just some weird sensations sometimes.
