I just wanted to tell you all I had the most awesome weekend here this last week. I went to Space Camp in Huntsville, AL where I went on a number of things that would normally challenge a healthy balance system such as a centrifuge (3.2 g's baby!), one of those 3 axis spinning ring things, and tethered on the end of a robot 20 feet in the air. Surprisingly, I had no issue whatsoever with dizzyness, nor walking once I got off all those things. So I guess my balance nerve is getting itself pretty well recalibrated!! So for all you newbies out there who are worried about life after having surgery, let me assure you that things can go back to fairly normal!

Hi, Jay ~
This is great news and I'm pleased to read about it.
We visited Disney World two years after my AN surgery & radiation and I not only walked what seemed like a million miles in the hot Florida sun (in August) but went on all the rides, including 'Space Mountain" (big, fast roller coaster - mostly in the dark), 'Test Track' (twice) and some rapid Go-Kart-like rides on a circular track. Great fun. My adult son, in his late 20's at the time and quite healthy, pooped out long before I did. My wife commented: "I guess you're really recovered, now". I agreed. Based on your recent Space Camp experience, so are you. Congratulations!
