A member asked:
Is it true that with brain tumor the tingling, weakness odd sensations etc usually only affect one side of the body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can be: Depends on exactly where the tumor is located. If it is on one side, it will produce symptoms on the opposite side of the body. If it is near the midline, it may produce symptoms on both sides. Some tumors have a large amount of swelling around them so their mass effect can cross over to the other side of the brain
