Thank you everyone for your well wishes and acts of kindness.
Nice to meet you Jim, I appreciate the information.

I guess right now we are in wait mode. I need to talk to Dr. Brackman at the HEC to hear my options, but we are pretty sure we know what they are. I'll be doing my homework and looking in CT for the best. I wonder what the margin of error is from year to year on reading MRI's? Just curious.

Thanks everyone, I'll keep you posted on our decisions. As I've read, getting to the point of just making the decision is 1/2 the battle.

1cm AN (right side) removed in 1999 at the HEC, Dr. Brackman.
No facial nerve damage, some hearing loss.
12 years out - regrowth is now at 6mm.

From what I've learned on here and from the doctors, the margin of error is 1-2mm.

I'm so sorry to hear that you have new growth and wish you strength as you move forward again.
