re: Acousitc neuroma aka benign brain tumor

Best of luck man. My wife had a craniotomy last year and had a few rough weeks but is completely back to normal.You will be just fine.

I hope the surgery goes smoothly. It is a fairly easy surgery (they can do with under local anesthesia with you awake or they will put you down if you'd prefer) and an acoustic neuroma rarely turns into anything malignant, so you don have anything to worry about! Glad it's the cause of your tinnitus and vertigo so you don't have to live with controlling that for the rest if your life!
