Dear fellow ANer's.

As a tribute to this forum I have posted my story on my  blog at: http://www.aribfromeve.com//blog/?p=32.
Hoping it brings some help to those still going through the journey as well as recovering.
God bless this board for helping me get through the tough and scary times.
I know I will still be doing MRI's for quite some time.
Given I passed this last MRI one with flying colors, the doc's say I can go to an "every other year" schedule.
Some days I completely forget I went through this.
When my SS-deafness makes me uncomfortable in group situtuations, I always remind myself it could have been much much worse.
I always find comfort in knowing I can always come here for understanding when an unexpected side-effect sneaks a side-punch and things gets a little to much to handle.

Deepest regards,
Crystal

Crystal,

I read the blog and honestly, I have to commend you... for your brutal honesty, for your step-by-step processes to help others understand your reality of your AN issues/situation.... for sharing so much of yourself.  Thank you for letting us know about it. It is a wonderful insight into all you endured.
