10-year post op MRI - clean
« on: December 31, 2016, 11:37:08 am »
Dear fellow AN sufferers,

I just had my 10 year MRI after the second AN surgery and it is clean! The ride has NOT been smooth and I do have residual side effects but at least I am not dealing with another regrowth and there is some stability for a change. I have been away from the forum for a few years and decided to check in to share the good news and offer some encouragement. Happy holidays everyone! I wish a clean MRI to all of you!

Eve
Right side AN (6x3x3 cm) removed in 1988 by Drs. Benjamin & Cohen at NYU (16 hrs); nerves involved III - XII.
Regrowth at the brainstem 2.5 cm removed by Dr.Shahinian in 4 hrs at SBI (hopefully, this time forever); nerves involved IV - X with VIII missing. No facial or swallowing issues.
