A brain tumor can grow unnoticed for a while. He is then in a part of the brain where a loss of function is not easily noticed. This is called a neurologically ‘silent’ area. Changes in mental abilities (cognition) can then occur. For example, memory problems or slower thinking. It can also lead to psychological changes, such as being less inhibited. These changes are less noticeable than headaches or loss of function.
The main symptoms of a brain tumor are: persistent headache; change in mental ability and behavior; failure symptoms; epileptic seizures¹. If you have 1 or more of these symptoms, see your doctor. He can examine you and refer you to a neurologist if necessary. He can investigate it further¹²³.
