A member asked:

Can tingling in arms and legs that comes and goes be a symptom of a brain tumor?

Specializes in Family Medicine

Unlikely: I suppose that this is possible but this would not be a typical presentation of a brain tumor. Many other things are much more likely to cause these symptoms.
