Brain tumor: what to know

Brain tumors do not have typical symptoms because they induce disorders common to many other diseases of the nervous system. These symptoms depend on the size of the tumor and the part of the brain affected, because each area of the brain governs a particular function, and if that area of the brain is affected the function is impaired.

The most common complaints to people with brain tumors are:

Headache
Epileptic seizures
Memory deficits
Depression
Cognitive and behavioral disorders
Chronic Fatigue (Fatigue)
Loss of control of movement or sensitivity to touch
Deep venous thrombosis
Decreased hearing
Decreased vision
Endocrine dysfunction

This section describes the most common symptoms of people undergoing treatment for brain tumors, and suggestions on how to deal with them.
