Expertise
i know a lot about this disease having it in my family from grandmothers, mother to sisters and children.

Experience
I have lived with this disease for some twenty five years. I can offer help in dealing with this, how to know you might have it or be getting it and why. I know the pain involved, the crippliing effect and can offer suggestions for relief. I will not medicate nor talk about what you should be taking, this is for your docter. I can however follow up with you on why and what works.

Subject: Brain Tumor

Question
My mother was recently diagnosed with BRAIN
TUMOR.
I was really shocked and honestly I do not know what to do
Please help me.
My question is: Can arthritis cause brain tumor?

Thank you

Answer
HI BEN
NO ARTHRITIS DOES NOT CAUSE THIS.
A HARD BUMP ON THE HEAD AT ONE TIME IN HER LIFE OR FROM AN ACCIDENT OF SOME SORT CAN CAUSE IT UP TO JUST NOTHING.  IF IT IS NOT CANCER, DO NOT GET UPSET.  I HAVE A FRIEND THAT GOT HIT ON THE HEAD BY A CAR, HE HAD A FRACTURED SKULL, THEY FOUND A TUMOR IN HIS HEAD AND LEFT IT ALONE, THEY WERE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT IT FOR IT IS DOING NOTHING TO HIS BODY.
TRY AND CALM DOWN AND DEAL WITH THIS AND HELP YOUR MOTHER.  DO NOT LET HER SEE ANXIETY FROM YOU, KEEP HER CALM AND LIVE A NORMAL LIFE AROUND HER.
SOMETIMES HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE CAN CAUSE HEAD PROBLEMS, BUT IF IT IS NOT CANCER, RELAX AND LIVE AND THANK GOD.

WARM REGARDS
