Right handed...left side AN...hate holding phone to right ear...it was always left so I could craddle it with shoulder and use my right hand to write...I can still hear from the left ear when talking on phone, but everyone sounds like Donald Duck.

according to the study of An;s finished in 2007, 49 % were on the left side, 51 % on the right side.

this was across all age groups too and pretty well ruled out any cellphone problems as reported often in the press.

there were also an appreciable amount of AN's above 1 inch / 2.5 cm in length........

Thanks to all those who have replied.  It seems pretty split, sorry that I did not know about the survey being done before.  No obvious pattern here either.

Thank you.

1cm AN on the left side.  Surgery was on Oct 2007 at HEI.  Currently having issue with it, may be a CFS leak.  Not feeling too well.
