Just thought I would relate that I had a positive Cyberknife experience at Georgetown last week, 8/13-8/17.  I have 50% speech discrimination in the AN ear, and ended up receiving 5 Gy/day for 5 days = 25 Gy total, with hopes of preserving remaining hearing.  Side effects have been very mild so far and I am hoping for a peaceful tumor death.
