A member asked:
Disequilibrium x1 week - only sometimes when walking. feel off balance. normal mri of brain 6 months ago. so scared this is a brain tumor? 27/f.

Consider other cause: Since you had an MRI of the brain 6 months ago, and it was normal, you should not think of brain tumor as the cause here. Other causes are more likely and more common. These could be medicine side effects, changes in the sensation of the feet, changes in the inner ear sensation of movement, or changes with your strength. Hope that helps!
