3 years after CK and all is well
« on: July 11, 2011, 06:21:08 am »
Sorry to say I haven't been on here in a long time.  Just wanted to update you all.  I'm about 3.5 yrs post CK now and all is well.  Tinnitus a bit worse but tolerable.  Hearing on AN side, in low normal range.  No complaints.  Just loads of other life stressors going on right now.  Hoping things will calm down but it's not likely to happen any time soon.  I'm considering going 2 years before repeating the MRI but will just wait until next year to see how things are going with the alien in my noggin.
Take care,
Sandra

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

Hi Sandra,

Great news. Sounds like most of us who had radiation have experienced the same things. All worth it when the tumor is stable.
