Brain Haemangioblastoma Tumor

Offline Feroz 3 months ago

Hello

I am a von hippel lindau patient and have a few brain tumors (Haemangioblastomas) to be specific.

I wanted some advice in understanding if you can do high intensity exercise (such as weight lifting and boxing training) while having these tumors?

thank you!

Welcome to Cancer Chat Rana although I'm sorry to hear about your situation.

As no-one has got back to you just yet, I thought I would stop by and give you our cancer nurses telephone number.

They're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m so do give them a call, as they will do all that they can to help.

I'm not sure from your post if you are aware of The Brain Tumour Charity but they may be able to provide you with further information and advice about this as well.

Kind regards,

Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
