Mine was on the left, 3.5cm and it was my phone ear.

I vividly rememeber a couple of days after my surgery, I was in the hospital and wanted to make a call, I must have tried 5 or 6 times and the phone was dead. I called the nurse in and she said the phone was fine (she was kind of ticked that I had bothered her for nothing).  I had it up to usual phone side and that was the very moment I realized I was deaf, even though everyone kept telling me I had lost my hearing.

Was your tumor located on your phone side?  Just curious.

Left side, removed 08-02-2005. Yes it was my phone side also. I did the same thing with the telephone. Shocking how silent the phone is when you realize you are deaf in that ear.
