Lou, I just did some googling of NF2 institutes in the UK.     Sorry I do not paste and copy well.     Look up www.advocurenf2.org      Under resources which is across the top,click on and list shows  NF clinical centers as part of the new list.   It gives the ones in the UK about mid way down.         I hope this helps and you can the specialist you need.                                Cheryl R

That is great!       I only knew that there was some places over there due to a NF2 lady I knew who had talked to a family of a teenager with NF2 and he was being seen somewhere there but I did not know where now.      I hope they can be of good help as know too well how scary it is to have NF2 and facial neuroma both!                            Cheryl R

Cheryl, I have been to my GP and she has given me the  go ahead to make an appointment with a neurologist. Wahooooo. I also have had an email from the nf2 nurse who told me to go back to the GP  and ask die a referral to her. Thank you spoon much. Your Google search has already potentially changed the course of my life
If I could you would be getting a great big hug, ((((((((xxxxx))))))))

Thank you Lou and and I am happy to hear that you will be going to a place that knows more about NF2.    Thank you for the hug and a big one back to you!      Now if we just had a magic hug to rid those who have NF2 and AN's too.           Keep it posted on how it goes for you and we hope for the best!                                                                   Cheryl R
