Slight growth ....?
« on: January 16, 2013, 11:52:35 am »
I was wondering for some insight.
I lost hearing in my AN ear after feeling fullness .
I went to my doc in NYC where I took a hearing test .
It showed middle range hearing loss . He then did a steroid
Injection that hopefully would bring back my
Hearing . I had tinnitus also . In the mean time It
Was suggested that I have my MRI done
Last week instead of January . Ps . The hearing seams
To be a little better . I do have wonky head and
Dizziness . I am working through it .
My MRI showed " slight" growth
It went from
3.5 mm x 3.5 mm x 2.7 to
3.5mm x 4.8mm x2.7 mm
What do you think ? Watch and wait for a while longer ?
Fingers crossed .

Allthough I am a big believer in W+W, there are times it may be appropiate to consider one of the other options. Such things as location, size, age, symptoms, and stability of the AN have to be addressed. Your Dr. + you should go over everything together. Picking a Dr. with whom your most comfortable and has the best experience is a great guidline. Most NYC Dr.s fit that criteria, I`m partial to Roland + Golfinos... Best wishes, Mickey P.S. your an in is still very small and all our main objectives in our treatment is to get the best outcome.
