Dawn,

I sent you some info about my experience with Dr. Post via PM, but if there's anything else you want to know, feel free to contact me or ask here.

By the way, do you know how large your tumor is/was?

Do you currently have hearing loss?

1 cm, 6mm, 4mm on Left side. Surgery performed 11/6/2008 by Dr. Kalmon Post and Eric Smouha at Mt. Sinai Hospital in NYC.
Normal hearing before, 85%-90% now, dizziness when walking or turning head, annoying hissing and high pitched tinnitus on and off, eyes have trouble adjusting to rapid head move

Wayne,

Thank you for the info and your experiences with Dr. Post.

My tumor is small right now....about 1/2 cm  I'm going for MRI 3/3/09 to see if its grown since last MRI in Nov of 2008. 

Since my tumor is small that is why I have time to get these other consults and see what other docs think.  I work with a Neuroseurgon but he does not do AN surgeries so he recommended Dr. Post as they used to work together.

Thanks
Dawn
