2 AN surgeries, cyberknife treatment and now a shunt

[tenai98]

April 11/2017, I had another AN surgery to debulk the bugger.  It had grown into my brainstem causing some problems.  Second time around was easier and I was home 3 days later.   Then I developed hydrocephalus and needed a shunt put in.   Anyone else dealing with shunts?   I guess I have lots of research to do.   I travel to Cuba and Mexico yearly and wondering about insurance???  Any info would be greatly appreciated.   

PS,   Having had cyberknife thinned my skin and I ran into some healing problems.   If I ever need another surgery around the AN site, I will need plastic surgery (skin graft) as well.  hindsight

This information is very helpful to me.

Hi Tenai,

I cannot help with your question. However, I wanted to say that if it is Mexico City where you visit regularly, do not doubt to contact me if anything is required.

Best,

Lilith
