susieq8, Once my craniopharyngioma was found it grew faster than we had anticipated. It seemed very unlikely that waiting and watching would be beneficial. It appeared inevitable that surgery would be required. Since I was not experiencing symptoms that might have been anticipated it seemed wise to have the surgery promptly. I did not experience any hearing loss. However, after surgery I had double vision for about a month. It resolved as I healed and without any intervention. My suggestion is to do all the homework that you need to feel comfortable that you know all of the important information. Then as you go through discussions with family and physicians be certain to make the choice that is best for you. @rubyjane
