Hi, Daniel! 

Welcome to the ANA discussion forums.  We're sorry you have an AN diagnosis but hope we can help, advise and support you as you deal with it. 

Jim 
4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

Had a feeling that was the case because the original post had some link to something that did not sound right and the same post was in two different places.  Sure glad you moderators are on top of things!!  Makes the rest of us feel safer.
