Should I talk to my doctor about my brain cancer symptoms?

If you experience symptoms of brain cancer, it is important to see a doctor. Symptoms vary widely, from headache and vision problems to personality changes and seizures. Your doctor can use imaging tests such as a CT scan or MRI to detect a brain tumor, and further tests can tell whether the tumor is cancerous. Even if it can't be completely cured, surgery, radiation and chemotherapy may be able to control the cancer and prolong your life for years.
