Well, good news for a change… followed by the usual “eh.” Very on-brand for sarcoidosis.
MRI says the brain tumor is stable—no surgery, no radiation 🎉
Six-minute walk test, though? Turns out you can fail that. I did 🤣

Tomorrow I get the results of my brain MRI to see if my vestibular schwannoma has grown. Fingers crossed it’s behaving itself and doesn’t require a 24-hour surgery😬
Because clearly sarcoidosis and heart failure weren’t enough excitement for one lifetime.

Rebecca M. was 7 months pregnant when she suddenly lost most of her hearing due to an #acousticneuroma. Now she is raising two toddlers, learning sign language, and advocating for brain tumor awareness because “benign does not mean fine.”

Many of my friends and family know I have a brain tumor. U of #Michigan hospital turned me away from brain surgery because I am "too fat" so now I have to go to #California for surgery. That is expensive.
Can you help me get my #acousticneuroma removed?

Today is World Hearing Day, and March is also Brain Tumour Awareness Month.
So, here's a personal piece from our editor-in-chief that covers both subjects, and what it's like living with tinnitus!

Recently diagnosed with a brain tumor(acoustic neuroma). This has left me partially deaf in my right ear. Trying hard to process this. Good news they are “typically” benign. #acousticneuroma #braintumor #stayingpositive
PS Always here to chat with #acousticneuroma folks. Lmk.
Again sorry I’m so slow at the moment it’s looking like not confirmed yet but may have an #Acousticneuroma which has really scared me as that requires brain 🧠 surgery so I’ve now got to wait for CT & MRI scans as my symptoms tick all the boxes for that condition v scary 😟 will keep you all posted 🖤🖤
One thing I find about life with one balance nerve is I kinda don't trust my balance and think I'll fall more often than I do. Walked up and down the breakwater at Granton Harbour and had a few moments where I thought I'd trip, stumble then tumble into the water but i survived 😅 #acousticneuroma
On January 16 of this year, I got gamma knife radiation on my #acousticneuroma brain tumor. Tomorrow, my mom gets the same procedure for the breast cancer in her brain. I can’t pinpoint it, but the discomfort welling inside me is deep, full of grief, and complicated. This journey is wild.

I've been experiencing a new kind of tinnitus. I think it's in my Meniere's ear, but it can be hard to pin down. It makes everyone sound like Alvin and The Chipmunks, but I can hear them better than usual. I guess I'll take it? #menieresdisease #deaf #acousticneuroma #tinnitus #disabilitysky #eeeee

A beautifully poignant tribute from @davidfrum.bsky.social to his late daughter Miranda, and a sobering reminder that benign brain tumors can be just as dangerous as malignant ones. #prolactinoma #meningioma #acousticneuroma #gangliocytoma
Black print on a pink background ground says, "Never get a chronic illness. It's really inconvenient for other people."
I said what I said.

19 years ago today, the NHS (Tom Carroll and the Skull Base Group at Sheffield Hallamshire Hospital) saved my life. Just 4 days earlier the team at the Jessop Wing had saved this little one's life too. We will be forever grateful 🙏
