Was diagnosed in June 2024. The auditory symptoms are overwhelming. I would be grateful to read others experiences and advice. Thanks.

Hi there. I initially thought I had an AN but it turned out to be a meningioma. The Acoustic Neuroma Association has an active forum on their website where you may find a bigger response. Really kind and informed people. Best of luck.

Hi @bobbimck, I'm bringing fellow members like @kimneiman @karenmet @mohanak @cynaburst @alexie1942 @saucy into this discussion as they have experience with auditory symptoms related to an acoustic neuroma.

Bobbi, what auditory symptoms are you experiencing? Hearing loss, tinnitus, fullness? Has treatment been recommended?

Thank you. I have a constant ringing/humming that became really noticeable this past February. I also have hearing loss on the left side. I did get new hearing aids which help with the loss, not the tinnitus (not yet). Recommended to wait and monitor at this point.
