I had CK in Dec 18 for my right side AN. After one month I had facial twitching. It reduced by using Steriods but came back as soon as I stopped steriods. My first Pre op MRI in March 19 showed that CK is working. However in April twitching stopped and I had facial paralysis, eye problem and mild pain in my right ear. I am not sure is it due to swelling or necrosis or tumor regrowth. My next MRI is due in Sep 19. I have been asked by my neurophysician to manage it through steriods. Moreover will physical therapy through electric stimulation will be beneficial or not?

Hi there. I am due to have the same procedure and have been told that the symptoms you have been suffering since, are a risk/ result of the treatment and you will get worse before you get better. I'm sorry I no nothing about the electronic stimulation but would be very interested to know if you try it and whether it helps. Good luck in your recovery.
