More than 100 people with brain tumors....
« on: April 20, 2022, 11:18:34 am »
"More than 100 people with brain tumors from same high school in New Jersey"
This really raised an eyebrow when I heard this. I'm sure not all are AN's but it is mentioned in the article. I am very interested to see if the researchers come up with a conclusion. Here is the article link. https://abcnews4.com/news/nation-world/more-than-100-people-with-brain-tumors-from-same-high-school-in-new-jersey-wciv
AN 1.4 CM Diagnosed 8/2019
Wait & See but grew to 2.3 CM in 8 mths
10/2020 Sub removal Retrosigmoid @ Stanford
Face sometimes tingly
Balance not too bad most days
Loss of left hearing
1 year follow-up = no growth

I work at a small community hospital emergency department.  Of the 9 ER docs, two of us have had AN diagnosed in the past 5 years, and another physician 8-9 years ago.  Curious!  or cluster?

Interesting report.  I think there are potential harmful exposures that most of us are not aware of all around us.

But thank you, both, for posting and participating in the Forums!
Burning Tongue, Loss of Hearing & Balance, and Tinnitus led to MRI. Very small AN found on 11/23/2021
While watching and waiting, lost significant hearing. WRS now at 12% (down from 100%). Was fitted with CROS system on 3/7/22.  Stable MRI on 7/29/22
No treatment yet.
