I know this is an older post but I just found this website!

So I personally wait till these AN/Schwannamanoas(sp) grow or cause problems!

Between my surgeries it was

1st - 2nd 12 years
2nd - 3rd 9 years
CI Surgery 7 days after 3rd surgery

I still have more AN on the left side which is the side I’m implanted on for CI.
