Hi Maggie,

I have friend i met through the CK forum and she had surgery for an AN. She is med school and noted that during one of her lectures these tumors were discussed and it seemed that AN was a worse diagnosis. Good luck either way.

Hi Maggie,
I know what you meant about reasearching not being a hobby you wanted but being informed is very important, as you know.  Good luck with your appointment on Friday and let us know what the outcome is.
