This does sound unpleasant - I’ve just read up about it. Maybe when it’s been treated your T will disappear? That would be good.

May I wish you all the best, and hope that when your treatment comes it’s successful.

Ive been told it won't go away as any hearing loss changes are permanent. I won't get surgery unless the tumour grows beyond a certain size which hopefully it won't. Will just get yearly mri scans.

Sorry to hear this, have you joined the Acoustic Neuroma support forum on Health Unlocked?

It’s a couple of years since I’ve been on their group but they seemed very knowledgable and supportive then. All good wishes.

No I haven't. Thank you I'll have a look
