Story

Raising awareness and funds for neurofibromatosis type 2

This can be a genetic condition that causes tumours to grow along the nerves. The tumours are usually non-cancerous (benign) but may cause a range of symptoms.

Almost everyone with NF2 develops tumours along the nerves responsible for hearing and balance. These usually cause symptoms such as:

● hearing loss that gradually gets worse over time

● hearing ringing or buzzing in the ears (tinnitus)

● balance problems – particularly when moving in the dark or walking on uneven ground

● muscle spasms

● blackouts

● blurred vision or temporary blindness

● nausea

● migraines

Would you like to join in supporting a good cause? I'm raising money for NF2 Biosolutions UK; your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate a lot or a little. Anything helps to research into this life changing condition even if it's a £1. Thank you for your support.
