A member asked:
Can you please describe the first symptom of brain cancer and how bad is it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Headache, nausea: New or changed headache, worsening headaches, vision changes/blurriness, nausea/vomiting, and sometimes balance problems are the most common symptoms. See a primary care provider as soon as possible if you have any of these symptoms. Imaging of the head with ct and/or MRI may be helpful.
