Post by: postmark on April 24, 2007, 07:20:31 pm
...had my 10 year (and LAST) MRI results back...  and they found NOTHING in my head, I am now "normal" (lol)   After 10 years - still have my crooked smile, have the normal AN sound issues (direction), Eye still gets dry on windy days. but there isn't anything I can't do that I did before.   Life is Good.

Dear Postmark,


Thanks for the posting!  You must be thrilled!

My guess is you will be monitored once in a great while with MRI's since you had problems on the one side, before.

Congratulations.  That is the most fabulous news.



Best regards,



Palace

Hi, postmark:

Sincere congratulations on your 10-year 'anniversary' and a 'clean' MRI!  We all need to know that an acoustic neuroma can be removed successfully and even with a few lingering effects from the tumor and/or surgery, we can go on to live a good life, as you have.

Not only does time heal but life is good, indeed.  :)

Jim

Hi
congratulations for 10years. I just joined your site yesterday.  I had my surgery in 1995.  I still need an MRI every year but as long as the dr reads the MRI and it is ok, I do not need to physically go and see him any more.  I joined because last summer and now this summer I have been experiencing fullness and numbness on the side I have no hearing. Reading comments and info from all o fyou.  I would appreciate any long term members that started experiancing these problems after all this time.
