Symptoms Pre Diagnosis of Brain Tumor

[@HaleyMary]

I get cluster headaches when the seasons change and the barometric pressure goes up and down. It took me three years to get a diagnosis. Thanks for sharing your story and educating all of us on the symptoms.

[@robdelpal2118]

That's a long time to go without a diagnosis. I'm glad you were able to get some answers. You're welcome, I'm more than happy to share my story and experience.

[@beavis4763]

Before I was diagnosed with a tumor there where a lot of symptoms which I thought where just related to lack of sleep, exhaustion, stress and not eating properly. No headaches but i'd feel pressure on the back of my head in the mornings. Blurred vision. Left eye would twitch sometimes. Left arm and leg would tingle and go numb sometimes. Fingers would turn pale and tips go blue sometimes. Sometimes I'd lose my balance, feel like I'm swaying on a boat. I'd get dizzy sometimes. See flashes of light sometimes. I had tinnitus in both ears. I'd easily get irritated around loud noises and people. Sometimes but not always I'd have completely no memory of the previous day like if my boss asked me something about yesterday most times I could recall what happened and sometimes I had no memory of what I did or conversations I had. So for example things like this would happen, it could be a Thursday and my boss would ask me about something I completed on Wednesday, I can recall Monday and Tuesday clearly but Wednesday would be completely blank, I'd have no memory of even going to work that day. Most likely caused by a seizure in the evening but as I lived alone there was nobody to witness and tell me I had one. Things like that would happen.

[@robdelpal2118]

That's excellent, I'm really hoping your insurance covers the scan. Thanks! I'm still dealing with a cyst in my brain but am looking to have that taken care of soon.

[@clasyclo9116]

So I've been having headaches as well, and I suspect there's something wrong. Did this happen to you: Sometimes my vision goes blurry but not pitch black but just really dark where I can't clearly see for 5-10 seconds and while that happens my head hurts. Is this a symptom of a brain tumor?

[@borrusimob575]

Hey, Rob. Have you ever been hesitant to see a doctor because you didn't want to seem like you are complaining about something small? I've had similar symptoms for a while now but am hesitant to go to the doctor only to be given Tylenol and told to give it time. I know this sounds silly.

[@robdelpal2118]

Hey I completely understand how you feel. It's easy to dismiss our own experiences as something that isn't a big deal or as something others would just put up with. Remember though, the fact that you're concerned about the current status of your health is more than enough of a reason to go see a doctor. I think it's important we take our own concerns seriously and do what we can to put our mind at ease - even when that means seeing a doctor. As for a doctor prescribing Tylenol and calling it a day, I have a couple thoughts on that. First, be sure to try the typical home/over the counter remedies you think might be appropriate for your situation (I'm assuming you've done this already). And second, be prepared to advocate for yourself when you do see the doctor. It's important to emphasize to the doctor how long you have been experiencing your symptoms and that a drug prescription (which may or may not work) is an unsatisfactory solution to your issue. The bottom line is, you want to know WHY you're feeling the symptoms you've been going through in order to best treat the condition. Go ahead and let the doctor know you'd like a CT scan (MRIs are rarely [as far as I have heard] ordered as a first look at the brain) to rule out any abnormal growths or brain tumors in your head. Ultimately, the doctor is working for YOU. And if you don't like the way the doctor is treating you, there's absolutely noting wrong with seeing another doctor or getting a second opinion. Doctors are people and definitely make mistakes just like the rest of us. I hope this is helpful! Please go see the doctor; I didn't do that for myself and it nearly killed me (quite literally). You're worth it.

[@shereehardin5783]

if the pills don't help demand a scan

[@Hunterbay872]

Demand a MRI with Angiogram

[@roshijinx7766]

Borrusimo B Alot of people get misdiagnosed many times I'd get an MRI if I were you full body if possible to rule out any cancer

[@sweetheartsakura3375]

Or opt always for second opinion! Sometimes if your first Doctor can't determine the cause and if being toldso of what might you have but still you doubt on it...then go to another doctor. It's best to have second opinion esp if in doubt!

[@mikemcclure9918]

Hi how are you doing today? I am writing to you because my mother had a brain tumor and she lived two years after her surgery but her symptoms were pain on one side of her head & vision issues, seizure's. Then approximately a year before she died my mother went blind. Which was really hard for me to deal with, I took care of my mother for two years, & I had to become her power of attorney to be able to write checks and pay bills and make other decisions that had to be made such as funeral arrangements. Plus! Many other things I was 21 years old when my mother became sick & I was 23 years old when she died. Which was very difficult for me to deal with. I hope that you are doing well and I hope you are saved & know Jesus Christ as your savior? I have a feeling that you are an Indian or something close in relation to the native American? But I wish you well my friend. Ok? God bless you and your family have a wonderful day.

[@robdelpal2118]

Hi there! Thank you so very much for your well wishes, I am doing much better these days. I'm terribly sorry to hear about what your mother had to go through. That experience must have been very difficult on both of you. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. My heritage is actually part English and and part Mexican (descendants from Native Americans). Good catch - most people don't realize I have more than just European in me. Anyways, I hope you are doing well and coping with the loss of your mother.

I didn't experience any more ringing in my ears than I already had. What I did notice though in regards to my hearing was that I couldn't hear as well out of my left ear. My hearing did feel restored after my surgery.

[@annawell8912]

I have very bad headaches, eye floaters, I can hear my heartbeat in my ear, I’ve been nauseas and vomiting, and my upper back is killing me! I’m about to give up. Doctors keep saying anxiety, but my anxiety is treated. I don’t know what to do

[@robdelpal2118]

Hey, so sorry to hear you're going through those symptoms. Why do your doctor's think it's just anxiety? I think if I were in your shoes, I would ask the doctor for a CT scan. Even if it just rules a brain tumor out, that's a step in the right direction. Also, if your current doctor won't order a CT scan for you, there's nothing wrong with seeing another doctor who will. Not every doctor gets it right, it could be worth getting a second opinion. Remember, they work for you and should be taking your concerns seriously, not dismissing your symptoms as anxiety. I hope you can get the help you need soon.

[@shereehardin5783]

have you checked your blood pressure? Might be that.

[@annawell8912]

Thank you! I got a ct in the hospital because I was super dehydrated. I mentioned the symptoms but the really just wanted to dismiss me because I’m in Dallas, and the flu is bad. Very bad. So they gave me migraine meds. Did a ct scan to see if I had an infection behind my eyes and they said I didn’t. I woke up the next morning with a giant lump on my spine. I’ve been in a lot of pain, but my doctor is finally willing to hear me out.

[@shereehardin5783]

oh that is definitely not blood pressure related...I also have eye floaters and palpitations but you have something else o.0 I have 'very odd' blood pressure readings whenever I go to the doc and have called my lil pumping episodes blood rise lol. That bump on your spine is super suspicious.

Hello Rob. did you have any constant dizziness? i’m experiencing headache’s and a constant state of dizziness along with random unusual thoughts kinda like your’s

[@robdelpal2118]

Hey, I actually did have some dizziness but I don't think it was connected to my tumor. During the time I was seeing a chiropractor, I was also seeing a massage therapist. After one of my massage sessions, my neck muscles got really loosened up. Somehow that was connected to my sense of balance. So I would be walking down the street when all of a sudden I would begin to feel dizzy to the point where I couldn't walk. The dizziness eventually went away after about a month and like I said, I don't think it was connected to my brain tumor. How long has your dizziness and random unusual thoughts been happening for? Have you told any of your loved ones about your thoughts? It might be a good idea to let them know what you're going through so they are aware.

[@pirataloco7348]

Hello Rob . My dizziness has been constant for about two months the thoughts just happen randomly but not often. yeah my loved ones are aware of how i feel. I’ve also seen my primary care doctor he has referred me to the neurologist. the only thing is that my appointment is about 20 days away and the feeling of not knowing what really is wrong is nerve wrecking. thank you for marking your video and sharing with all of us. Armando G

[@robdelpal2118]

Hmmm... that dizziness sounds really miserable to deal with. I'm glad to hear your loved ones are aware of the situation. Yeah I think you'll feel better once you know what exactly is going on. That's how it was for me. Once I was diagnosed, I felt really glad to just know what it was I was going through - even though the diagnoses itself wasn't pretty. I hope you can get some answers soon. Good luck with your appointment to see the neurologist.

[@IndieCanadian]

Hi Rob, How are you doing? Sometime ago, I read a book written by a doctor who had brain tumors twice and according to him, once he changed his life style, he didnt had it afterward. Summary of his book was "Sugar feeds all types of cancers" (or tumors). So you have to literally starve/deprive body of any foods containing any sugars. i.e. no juices, no pop/softdrinks, no fruits like melons which are high in sugar/fructose etc, and even avoid starchy foods which convert into sugars fast (eg white flour, biscuits, potato, potato chips, rice, junk foods, fast foods etc). Hope this helps. Try it out if still having problem. Eating healthy and organic foods like vegetables etc, is the key to living disease-free long life. All the best wishes to you. Post an update video if you like. Stay alive!

[@jasonjets7342]

hey rob, after you have had your surgery was the tumor all gone? and are you now tumor free?

[@robdelpal2118]

Since my surgery (which did not actually remove my tumor) I've undergone radiation therapy to try and stop the tumor from growing further. So far the results from that have been inconclusive but I should find out if it worked after my next MRI (to be scheduled within the next month or two). Hopefully the radiation was successful, I really don't want to undergo another surgery.

Hey! Thank you so much for your concern. Yeah, I've been pretty bad about posting updates (in my head, one is always coming soon) but have not forgotten about anyone seeking help. I do my very best to respond to every comment even if it does take me a few days to get back to people. A blood test could reveal some helpful information though any abnormal blood test could very well just show another symptom of something larger. I can certainly understand the fear of getting an MRI. My advice would be to think of it this way: whether you get an MRI or not, whatever it is that's causing your symptoms will still be there causing you pain. And if you're gonna have to deal with the little bugger either way - you might as well know what it is you're up against. Knowledge is power and in some situations, can literally mean the difference between life and death. I hope this advice is helpful and you get yourself looked at - you're worth it!

My headaches were generally a dull pain. I don't remember much throbbing or anything particularly unique about them. When I first started getting them, they felt exactly like a typical headache I've experienced before. The difference for me was the fact that this new headache would not go away. The only time I experienced any relief from the headache was when I was asleep. Within seconds of waking up, I'd feel the pain again. I would definitely get yourself checked out by a doctor. I know how much it sucks to go through the headaches and it's not worth putting off the doctor visit. Hopefully you'll get some answers and can develop a plan to get better. You shouldn't have to live with those headaches for the rest of your life.

[@chefreedom540]

Rob delpal Thank you .but When you tell about symptems in the video . Did the symptoms com in the same time . And how long did the haddiche last every day?

[@robdelpal2118]

When the headaches first started, they weren't very painful but they were enough for me to acknowledge the fact I was having a headache. The day my headaches began, I thought I could get rid of it by taking a nap (this usually worked for me). After my nap though, the headache was still there. From that point forward, my headaches were always present whenever I was awake. The only time I wouldn't feel the headache was when I was asleep. There were some points when the headache was more subtle and I could ignore it, but if I payed attention to how my head was feeling, the headache would still be present. Over time, the headaches would get worse. There were some days I couldn't even go to school because I was in so much pain and couldn't even get out of bed. Eventually, I started having numbness in my face but that wasn't as persistent as my headaches were. Not long after I started getting the numbness did I end up in the emergency room. I hope that helps. If you're going through something you know isn't normal, get yourself checked out by a doctor. It could save your life .

[@robdelpal2118]

Glad to hear you visited your doctor to get checked out. I hope your MRI goes well. Your headache sounds similar to mine in some ways but I never felt like something was moving in my head. That actually sounds really scary to go through. Yeah, 28 is young. I was diagnosed with my brain tumor at 31 but it was likely growing in my head since I was in my late teens or early 20s. Unfortunately, that's just the way it goes sometimes. My headaches would start from the time I woke up and continue until the moment I fell asleep. Once I fell asleep, I couldn't feel them anymore and they wouldn't wake me up (lucky for me). I only experienced them when I was awake. I have a video on my condition at the time I went into the hospital - check it out and let me know if you have any further questions. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3qUqoOLfN1qfZI Stay positive.

hi ive been expierencing numbness in the middle of my neck back middle part and i think the side bones of the neck? did you expierence that? i thought that it might be becuase of exercise that ive done like situps it strained my neck when i would do them. and when i would do them i would get numbness in my head and cheeks but it was only when i done that exerercise. but now i stop doing it like when i cycle on my bike it feels like its numbness again. could it be a pinched nerve or something else i cant really go to doctor right now?

[@robdelpal2118]

Yeah that definitely isn't normal. The only numbness I experienced was a slight tingling feeling on my cheeks. I believe it was due to a lack of circulation in my head. I would get a cat scan and have that checked out if you haven't already. I hope you feel better.

ok so i had cancer about 4 years ago on my kidney and i did chemo for it for 6 months. i’m 16 now. and lately i’ve been having headaches, left side vision field loss, nauseous, imbalance when standing, and my speech is slurred sometimes, but rarely. i’m also tired all the time even if i drink coffee. and my headaches and pains don’t go away with basic medicine like Tylenol or aleve. should i be worried?

[@robdelpal2118]

It does sound like you have good reasons to be concerned for your heath. At the very least there's really no good reason why you should be experiencing the slurred speech - that on it's own is enough to make me concerned. It is entirely reasonable to see your doctor about your symptoms. Have you shared this with your parents and asked them to take you to see the doctor? You'd probably want to get some imaging done on your brain to be sure everything is alright.

Hey I was wondering if you could help I've a headache for a month and I was wondering if your head ever hurt if you strained because mine hurts when I strain really hard I went to the doctors and she checked my eyes out and everything was fine and now I'm having like a heavy feeling in my right cheek it isn't tingling and it doesn't feel different to my left when I touch it is this a symptom i have an MRI on Thursday and was wondering if this is a symptom thanks you

[@robdelpal2118]

Yeah, at one point, my headaches would get much worse if I strained. They would greatly intensify and much more difficult to deal with if I strained it. I think you're certainly showing symptoms of something, it may be a brain tumor or it could be something else entirely. The results of your MRI will give you a much better idea of what's going on than I can from sitting behind my computer. I really wish you the best of luck and hope you get the answers you're looking for.

[@j0shi333]

Rob delpal my headaches don't get worse when I strain it's just a sharp pain doesn't make the headaches worse at all and my headaches don't hardly hurt at all they are like a 4/10 on a pain scale

[@j0shi333]

Also to add I have very bad anxiety and have been very stressed about this for the month and also did the tingles in your face feel like a burning sensation because sometimes mine does and I've heard this can be anxiety caused

[@robdelpal2118]

Ah, ok. Generally, my headaches weren't very painful either, but they were constantly there. I couldn't get them to go away. From time to time, they would increase and feel much more like a migraine, but overall they were manageable (at their best, they were only a 2 or a 3 for me and at their worst, they were probably about a 7 or 8). I can certainly understand your stress and anxiety over this. It could be a sign of something very serious and you are rightfully concerned about your health. No, I never felt a burning sensation in my face. The tingles I felt were pretty much just tingles and nothing more. I never had any pain associated with them. Good luck with your MRI tomorrow; answers are on their way.

That's interesting. Did your doctor perform any tests on you to determine there is nothing to worry about as he claims? You know your body better than anyone else, if you still think there's something wrong - you may want to see another doctor and get a second opinion.

Hope you're doing well. Did your numbness come and go or was it constantly present?

[@robdelpal2118]

Thank you, I'm doing much better these days. For me, the numbness came and went. I maybe felt it for two or three hours before it finally went away. The tingling sensation left very gradually and I would slowly regain the feeling in my cheek. It was so slow that by the time it was back to normal, I had forgotten I even had an issue. What I think happened was the cyst (caused by the brain tumor) was so large that it began to block the circulation of fluid / blood flow in my head. This resulted in certain parts of my head to not receive enough blood (kinda like when your foot falls asleep) and caused the tingling / numbness I went through.

[@shereehardin5783]

I learned that was a partial seizure. A woman was told this by her doc. For her it went so far as to make her hand clench on its own. It tingled on her face too.

That sounds miserable... I'm sorry you're going through that. Those headaches are definitely not normal and should be checked out by a doctor. If you see a doctor, encourage/push them to do a cat scan (doctors usually won't start with an MRI even though that'll give a much clearer picture of your brain). The one thing I regret about my headaches is not getting them investigated sooner. If I had gone in to get it checked out once I realized the headaches won't go away on their own, my tumor would have been smaller and easier to deal with. Not going to the see the doctor was my biggest mistake and it nearly killed me. Don't put yourself in the same position as I did. I'm doing much better these days, thank you for asking. I've had a total of two brain surgeries now and the headaches are gone.

Mario- I'd suggest getting a MRI if your symptoms persist, an MRI is high resonance and can pick up "certain" abnormalities that a CT Scan can't. CT'S play their role for certain findings as also MRI'S do as well. I have two small white matter lesions that was found on MRI that CT scan didn't detect and I've had more than a few of those. MRA imagining is another that's used as well to see blood vessels. Having headaches, persistent dizziness and other neurological symptoms doesn't always imply a brain tumor, it could be just from anxiety, inner ear issue, vestibular disorder to a plethora of reasons. Hope you're feeling better.
