I had an MRI about 2 weeks ago and they discovered I had an acoustic neuroma in my left ear
I had numbness in my mouth for 6 months to a year…went to the dentist and they could see nothing
So after not being able to hear very well from my left ear and saying WHAT a lot…I decided to go to an ENT in my area and he ordered an MRI…
They found the AN on that…
I went to an ear surgeon and told me I could have surgery but there are risks with surgery so he told me all the bad stuff which scared me so much I have been so upset since that happened…
This doctor sent me yesterday September 3rd to a Radiologist Oncologist…and he said it could be radiated…with 25 sessions over 5 weeks with 1.8 gray of radiation per session…
Does anyone out there have any knownledge of this?
Please help…I am still scared.
