I had AN, got the vaccine, and no issues.  I"m obviously not a doctor, but I follow these things closely and I don't think there is any reason to have AN be a reason not to get vaccinated.  The vaccines are incredibly important and are saving lives.
Vestibular Schwannoma 1.2 cm. Right side.
Middle fossa surgery at University of Iowa on May 9 2016.
Hearing saved.  Face is fine. Balance pretty darn good most days.
One year follow up MRI showed no tumor. 
Five year follow up showed no tumor, so I'm in the clear.

Thanks Greece Lover! Was just a bit worried re more side effects like swelling happening- as it is two years later I get trigeminal pain in ear - cannot lie on that side. Yes I hear you- in my country not enough vaccines we waiting for Pfizer. Am not anti. Just a bit scared re friends who had and terrible nausea and bad headaches.
