When I was first diagnosed, my neurosurgeon (Chandler, who's one of the symposium planners) advised "watch & wait" since he said I'd lose 15% of my hearing by using Gamma Knife.   I think FSR and Cyberknife have better results in that area.

Hi Nick,
I hope all goes well with your treatment(s) as well. I'm glad you've made a decision you're comfortable with and optimistic about.
When you figure out the dates, can you put it on the AN treatment calendar (maybe someone already did)? That way we can keep up with you. We're very motherly.
Sharon, what's the latest on what you've decided to do? Maybe I missed it somewhere?
Take care,
Keri
