I had a 3.3 cm AN partially removed 7 months ago. (2nd MRI showed about 30% left)
No movement left side, until this morning, finally, I found a very small, almost imperceptible movement at the left corner of my mouth when I try to smile. Maybe this is a good sign of things to come in the next months. Anyway it was the sign I was waiting for, 7 months checking the mirror. So I am very hopeful again, I had almost lost hope when I passed 6 month mark with no change.
I still struggle with closing my left eye, blurriness, and dryness.
I am still sensitive to light, can't go anywhere without my sunglasses.
I have noticed more of a copper or metal taste in my mouth that others have mentioned.
I hope these things will improve, especially my vision.
And still no hearing left side, but I knew I would lose that going in.
Of course any improvements I have could be wiped out in the next surgery, but I try not to think about it.
