Anyone else diagnosed with acoustic neuroma, a benign brain tumor?

Hi, my name is Steve. I was Diagnosed with a 4.7cm (very large) Acoustic Nueroma Vestibular Schwanoma in March 2015 in Montana. I had it surgically removed in May 2015 at the Mayo Phoenix. Due to the skill of my Nuerosurgeons, I was able to go back to work carrying the mail 12 miles a day on foot in just 74 days. I live a wonderful life. There is hope!

Hi Steve
I had a 3.2 cm tumor resected by retro craniotomy at Mayo in Phoenix Sept 2018 by Dr. Bendok and Dr Wisecoft. I am 68 years old but my recovery has been steady. I am driving, working part time and back to doing a lot around the house. My experience at Mayo Clinic has been good. Everyone there has been so kind and supportive.
