Acoustic Neuroma: Balance issues years after treatment

Posted by mollybrownbeard @mollybrownbeard, 5 days ago

Acoustic Neuroma in 2012.
I had radiation surgery in 2014.
In 2018 I was unable to balance well enough to walk.
***** Anyone else go through this?
Not being able to balance well enough to walk has been a total nightmare!

@mollybrownbeard, I can imagine that having persistent balance issues years after treatment is a nightmare. Can you share a bit more? Has your neurosurgeon been able to explain how treatment may have affected balance or the vestibular nerve? Have you worked with a physical therapist for vestibular rehabilitation?
