mellowrama and others:

I did ask Dr. Levine about it and he said they are working on some revisions.

My ENT told me about this site the day he called me with "the news".   It REALLY
helped me to understand what a AN is and what my treatment options would be.  After he
said the word "Benign Tumor" I don't think I heard a word he said so I am grateful he told
me to write down the address.

Thanks, Kathy
