10 Meningioma Symptoms

Symptom #2: Pain and Weakness of the Extremities
One characteristic symptom of meningioma is pain and weakness of the arms and legs. This symptom usually occurs in cases when the tumor is located in the parasagittal region of the brain or in the cerebral falx.
In cases when the tumor mass develops in the meninges that cover the spinal cord, a dull ache, a sensation of heaviness is commonly felt in the upper and lower extremities. Often this symptom is underestimated or associated with other conditions, which just delays the diagnosis.
