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.

Also congrats.

I suggest getting all your MRIs on CDs so you can see for yourself how the little bugger is progressing.

I want to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart ! This forum has been invaluable, and It's been a long hard road up to this point for me to be sure.  Part of the battle is won, but not the war ! I appear to be in the process of being something of a success story...currently !  To other's who have AN--keep your chin up...there is hope---absolutely !
