I suffer from left side weakness, headaches, tremors ( left side only) I get very tired easy and have problems remembering things (concentration is off). The doctor ordered a MRI and it showed a venous angioma in the right parietal occipital lobe. The doctor wants to dismiss this as nothing but has no answer for my symptoms. Can this be causing my symptoms?
Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is possible that the venous Angola might be causing all your symptoms. The venous Angola is an entanglement of vessels, and it is in the back of the brain in right parietal and occipital lobes. The size of the lesion is not known, and the symptoms might vary with the size of the Angola. Since it is located in the right occipital lobe, and it is causing problems on the left side. Unless I see the images it is difficult to confirm all the possibilities but in many people headache can also be caused due to such tumors. It is not a cancer, but the growth of the venous Angola can lead to progress of symptoms. You can send me your MRI scan brain images and discuss in detail. Please do not worry.
