What causes each symptom depends on which area of the brain is being
pressured by the brain tumor. No one knows what causes each person's brain tumor. My husband had already been diagnosed with a brain tumour and according to the neurologist, it should not be affecting him any longer. Since his pupils have always been different sizes, is it possible that this alone can cause dizziness?Answer: - Bleeding inside the skull caused by head injury
- Brain tumor or abscess
- Infection of membranes around the brain caused by meningitis or encephalitis
- Aneurysm
- Excess pressure in one eye caused by glaucoma
- Tumor in the chest or lymph node pressure that may be accompanied by decreased sweating, a small pupil, or drooping eyelid all on the affected side
These is just a short list, there are so many other things that can be causing it.
I am not sure if the pupil size alone can cause dizziness but some of these problems above along with it sure can. I would contact your husbands doctor and express your concerns. |
