I have very mild symptoms - main one is tinnitus. Sometimes a bit of balance and sometimes fatigue. I had eye issues in 2011, those subsided. I have been watch and wait 8 years now. My AN is very very small, however, my sister's was also very very small and it disabled her pretty much within a six month period since it affected her balance and vision big time. She had it surgically removed (back in 2001), she's single sided deaf due to the surgery but she lives a normal life, works, etc. Sometimes I don't even remember she's single sided deaf until I get on the wrong side when walking with her. I just take hope that there was a study done in a European country years ago (Finland maybe) and they examined the brains of many people after they died and found small ANs that the people had never reported issues with/never were diagnosed with. So I'm hopeful I'll be like that.
