Title: 1 year scan results back
Post by: Blw on April 27, 2017, 03:43:40 pm

Better than anticipated. At 6 months the tumor showed a central area of clearing. At one year, the clearing is still there, but there was substantial shrinkage. 17mm x 11 mm  --->9mm x 6 mm. Discussed the recent publication linking hearing loss as an independent risk factor for dementia. Interesting study and unfortunately perhaps relevant as hearing in the other ear is crappy. Have a hearing aid consult coming up in the future... :(

I expect lots of ups and downs but this was a relief.
