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

Hi Its me after a long time. I had my surgery June 2018. The 8th Cranial nerve was cut. This has affected my balance a lot. After reading other peoples testimonies, I feel Blessed. I do have very few lasting effects. I have found that when the barometric pressure changes, it causes the dizzy feelings more. Walking straight can be a challenge, but at least I'm still here to stagger. After losing my hearing in my right ear the sound can be deafening at times. I will say through all of my experience, there is always someone who has it worse off.

@hey vickied117. Hello I had brain surgery March 10, 2014. My balance when the barometer changes can be devistating to my balance. I can’t tell
Where noise is coming from because I lost my hearing in my left ear due to brain tumor. It was a schwanoma. Every day is challenging. I am alive , staying positive. And thankful💕

Good to hear from you, @vickid117. I'm glad that you are doing reasonably well since your surgery last year. It sounds as if your attitude has taken you through some difficult times and that you can be grateful for what you have.
Since your surgery, do you now hear from your right ear?
