So today's appointment went something like this:
Neurologist: SO why are you here today?
Me: because my ENT referred me because I have acoustic neuroma or meningioma. I have a tumor.
Neurologist: (scanning over MRI pics). That is correct. You not need me, you need brain surgeon.
Me: o-k
Neurologist: Here, look (showing me MRI pics at BIG A$$ TUMOR) You have nice brain folds, by the way.
Me: WOW, thanks...if I had a dollar for every time I've heard that, I'd be rich. Yes, please set me up with brain surgeon as soon as you can.
Neurologist: ok
Geez.
My new motto, is "I GOT THIS"
I'm going to remain positive and get the surgery and do whatever I can to recover as quickly as possible. I can't help but laugh at the appointment. I waited for over 45 minutes for like a 5 minute appointment. I suppose all my questions will be answered by the brain surgeon soon.
Silly doctors.

I've always admired your brain folds!
(Why did they send you to a Neurologist in the first place?)
