Yes, several of us saw it... The primary "billing" on the episode is about a woman whose legs turned black...  That's the same epidode featuring the neuroma patient...

Regards,
Brian

I finally got to see this episode. Certainly not a typical presentation on AN, not even referred to as such. Main involvement was facial nerve and brain stem, the acoustic nerve was not involved untill late in the process when they mentioned that she finally lost her hearing. It was called a brain stem neuroma.

Thanks for pointing that out, Dr. Sam.

Did they mention this diagnosis in the episode?

I only recall hearing "neuroma".
