SYMPTOMS OF BRAIN CANCER (2)
The most common symptoms found in brain cancer patients are the following: Headache, weakness of the body, clumsiness, difficulty in walking and seizures. Other symptoms are memory loss, changes in concentration and alertness, vomiting (especially in the morning), abnormalities and difficulty in speaking and vision, and changes in intellectual and emotional capacities.
The symptoms are caused by the tumor pressing to the brain and keeping them from normally functioning. Some symptoms may be caused by the swelling of the brain because of the tumor. The symptoms for the primary and secondary brain tumors are similar, thus making it hard to verify what kind of brain cancer the person has. The only way to know what are causing the symptoms is to undergo diagnostic testing.
