Hey all,
My first post since my surgery as my vision has been blurred. I had my 7 hour AN surgery as MGH by barker and mekena on 6/19. everything went well. he was not able to remove all the tumor as it was wrapped by my facial nerve. I will find out in a month what is left and what the next course of action is. But for now no facial nerve damage. My vision is blurred but getting better and they say it should not be permanent. I get wicked headaches at night but feel great during the day. I think part of my headaches issue is my prior addiction to caffeine. The pain pills with caffeine help a lot. Saw an ENT doctor yesterday and he says i look great.
The post op care at MGH was outstanding.What a well run hospital and the nurses are angels. Hey the food was even ok. Home after 1 week and recovering well.Thanks to all for yuor support and encouragement. Dr Barker and mekena did right by me.
