A member asked:

How likely is it to have a brain tumor at 22?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low: It will announce itself as a personality change, headaches, nausea, or seizures. Less often, a focal deficit. Your physician knows how to screen you. You are at a very difficult age and life's hardships always produce some symptoms that mimic bran disease.
