Hi!
Thanks Mickey for your support and encouragement. I know that I am not the only one who suffers from anxiety, depression and other emotional issues related to dealing with their AN. I have been so confused since I got the results of my last MRI in May. Up until now my AN has not grown since Dec. 2005. I know that my AN is tiny, and I don't have any major problems associated withthe AN. What the confusion is all about is the fact that my AN doctor said to go ahead and have GK now, and the doctor I went to see for the second opinion said to continue to W & W until my next MRI in May 2009. However, both doctors said it could go either way. I guess I should go for another opinion, but I think in a way that would only confuse me even more. I had decided to meet both doctors half way and have the next MRI in Nov. I felt good about that decision until recently. I trust my AN doctor, but I also know that I need to ask him some more questions. I plan to see my psychiatrist soon so I don't have a setback with my bipolar disorder. It feels like my mood is starting to swing, but in reality it just might be a normal reaction that many of us go through when we are trying to deal with issues associated with our ANs. I'm hanging in there with all of the rest of you. Thanks again for your support.
Nancy
