There are differing types of brain tumours.
I have a meningioma. It is a tumour in the tissue surrounding the brain.
My tumour is attached to the optic nerve.
The symptoms are failing vision & enlarged eye (not too noticable, really). There is no pain.
This is the best type of brain tumour with regard to outcome, I'm told.
Mine is actually regressed & dormant, posing no immediate threat to my health other than my vision.
I don't know the symptoms of any other brain tumours - I hope you are not worrying needlessly because you are getting headaches. The chances of it being a tumour are probably quite remote - get a checkup, you'll feel better!

My neighbour realised that something was not right with her son because out of the blue he started limping with his right leg and also he started dropping things with his right hand. So that same day she took him to the doctors and had a scan the following day and thats when they saw the tumor. Immediately he was operated on and test confirmed that the tumor was malignant. Doctors could not remove all of the tumour so he was given chemo but this did not work and sadly he passed away 4 years ago at the age of 3. Then my auntie also suffered from a brain tumor. Her symptoms were different, she had headaches. She also had a scan and doctors confirmed she had a tumor but this one was not malignant and everything went well and now she is living life to the fullest.

they're marvelous at identifying on up tumors. If it mentioned no tumor, then there is not any tumor. you're able to be able to desire a doctor of a various type to confirm why you're confident you have a tumor interior the face of information that asserts in any different case.
