A member asked:
Giving a ct scan to look at the brain, but how long do the symptoms of brain cancer/tumor last, and how long does it take to diagnose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on pathology: Symptoms of a brain tumor depend on the pathology. Once present expect the deficit to last until the tumor is treated.
