The only person I know with NF2 who lives in NY state is in Syracuse and he has chosen to go to Boston and House in CA for treatment. Lucky him to have a health insurance plan that lets him go out of state!
2011 8 x 7 mm AN, & 20 x 22 mm M found, both on the left. Mosaic NF2 diagnosed. Some hearing loss
2014 hearing 30% on left, now using hearing aid (HA)
2015 Now have CROS HA - no longer hear enough for HA to be useful in AN ear
2016 Use an FM system on occasion at work to supplement HA
