I first thought there was a connection if you were left or right handed but I don't think so anymore.  My father was right handed but we believe his left ear was the bad ear like mine is.

This is a very old post.

I think research has shown that 50% of ANs are left side and 50% are right side - and that handedness is irrelevant.

Research has also shown that 50% of AN patients are male and 50% are female.

Guess this means that ANs are equal opportunity tumors  ;D

I thought I was having a "senior moment" until I did some searching.  Yes, this probably has been around more than once before.  But I knew I had responded to this query several months ago.  If anyone is interested, you can check out additional replies on handedness vs. AN side at:  http://anausa.org/forum/index.php?topic=9128.0
