No I hadn't got the report yet, I hate the not knowing, the GP was out sick yesterday and so they are playing catchup but her voice was not encourging..........I hope tomorrow as I am going to pressure them.

Dave:

I just want to add my congratulations on your MRI results that indicated only scar tissue and not a re-growth.   This has to be a great relief to you, as it would be to any post- op AN 'veteran' 5 years out, with too-familiar symptoms.  I'm very happy for you.  :)

Now, I wish you and your physicians success in determining the exact cause of the symptoms you're experiencing.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.
