Hi it's Lisa and Dave. We are on here as Dave was diagnosed with a brain tumor 28 Feb. We don't know anymore as his appt is not until 12 march. They say it's temporal lobe where memory is. Don't know what time do or think. I've called 111 twice as he's had really bad headaches and now been quite sick. I have been given anti nausea tablets and told it must be a bug. Can anyone please help as I don't know what to do thanks 

  • Hi Lisa and welcome to the Cancer Chat forum.

    I'm very sorry to hear that Dave was diagnosed with a brain tumour last month and that he's been having trouble with symptoms today.

    I hope the anti nausea tablets have helped with your husband's sickness since you made this post, but if you're still worried or things have got worse then don't hesitate to get back in touch with the NHS on 111 as they will be in the best position to advise. 

    I'm really sorry I can't help more, but we're thinking of you and sending all our support to the both of you at this very challenging time.

    Kind regards,

    Thank you. The doctor is checking in the morning and if no better he's going to hospital. Thanks for replying
