Sounds like what I had in July, I had 3 lose dose treatments Mon, Wed and Fri for 2 weeks. I have my 6 month MRI set for Jan 12. I hope all is good. I'll let you know and everyone here how it turns out.

Mindyandy, I'm not sure if I said so in another post already, but just in case not...

Congratulations on getting it scheduled! Having the date set seemed like a great relief to me, I could stop thinking about what to do, and start waiting for it to get done.

Double Happy New Year to you.  :D

8 mm left AN June 2007,  CK at Stanford Sept 2007.
Hearing lasted a while, but left side is deaf now.
Right side is weak too. Life is quiet.

Mindyandy, Steve speaks the same words I wanted to share. Congrats on your decision making process completion and hoping that it takes part of the "monkey off your back".  For me, I found the decision making process one of the most difficult things to handle during this AN journey.  I'm thrilled you are all set and know that I send wishes and huggles. What a way to start the new year -- on a wonderful road to wellness.

Happy holidays to you... and again, congrats!
