6. Mass Effect
Mass effect includes symptoms that occur when a brain tumor puts pressure on the normal tissue that surrounds it. This is called intracranial pressure, also known as ICP. It may take place if the tumor grows within the tight confines of the skull, if the fluid flowing through your brain gets blocked (known as hydrocephalus), or if the fluid is building up in the area of the brain near the tumor, causing it to swell (known as edema).
Nausea and vomiting are among the symptoms that are associated with mass effect. Other symptoms include headaches, drowsiness, problems with vision, and changes in behavior.
