Hi!
Wasn't sure where to post this but it's a sub section of the acoustic neuroma foundation dot org site and I thought it was succinct in explaining the various nerves that an An can affect in the head and how they might play out in symptoms, (for an An) from drippy nose, leaky eye, face pain and so on....
http://www.acousticneuromafoundation.org/acousticneuromasymptomsandanatomy.phpAlso, I am adding this one:
http://www.acousticneuromafoundation.org/acousticneuromafacialpain.phpas I know a few have mentioned some symptoms on the side oppsite to the An and this might explain a bit of that.... after reading this I see that those cases might be due to the loacation of the tumour in the cerebellopontine angle etc..... interesting that this abstract mentions only one... (makes me wonder if that's because some of us might not mention a symptom especially if it's only now and then and not often? we probably should be telling our docs all symptoms so they can end up figuring it all out lol)
hope you all did something nice for yourselves today....
( i spent a bit of time in the sun today and read a bit of a great book before some errand stuff)
cheers all,
windsong
PPS: interesting that it's only under two years out for me since my An was found but even now I see that under possible treatments they have endoscopic listed and so on... ( i don't recall seeing that two summers ago, maybe i missed it then)
