I had surgery in 6/2011, a skull infection in 1/2013, regrowth and then GK in 7/2013. A long hall but almost four years after diagnosis I feel myself again
My face was totally paralyzed for 51 weeks after surgery then I slowly regained movement, I was able to smile if I thought about it and made myself smile. Last week, almost 4 years since surgery I noticed my smile is partially on its own, just happens when I move the other side of my mouth!!!!!! so hang in there, my eye still doesn't blink, I have a gold weight and a stitch in it, which is so helpful, no longer need hourly eye drops, don't know the last time I used them
I only check in the forum every few months, please email if you'd like at nailorvt@myfairpoint.net, just put acoustic neuroma in the Memo. Good luck to all of you, hang in there! Say your prayers and let your family and friends be there for you. just my two cents........
