Anxiously waiting

Hi all I’m newly diagnosed as having a AN which is currently 1.5cm. This was diagnosed following one sided tinnitus and hearing loss on left side. Whilst waiting for my mri results and diagnosis I Started experiencing a couple of really bad vertigo attacks, nausea and head pain. I mentioned these to the ENT consultant at diagnosis appointment who said he would add info to the report that he was forwarding to Neuro Team at Queens Nottingham. Can any tell me approx how long it took from Diagnosis to getting your 1st appointment with Neurologist? Wishing you all well on your AN journey.
