What is brain cancer?

Brain Cancer is when malignant (cancer) cells are found in the brain. Primary brain cancer originates in the brain. Metastatic brain cancer starts in some other part of the body and moves to the brain. Brain cancer can cause symptoms such as headaches, nausea, vomiting, muscle jerks or twitching and numbness or tingling in the arms and legs. A person may experience problems with balance, walking, thinking or memory. Other symptoms include changes in a person’s ability to hear, see, or talk. Treatment usually involves surgery and may involve radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Watch more video about brain cancer or share your story or experience on video with icyou.
