My daughter complained headache several times in last two months. She is only 2 now. It happens normally at night when she was in bed before sleeping. There was no cause like hit, just suddently she told her mom "I am headache" or "My head is hit by wall" and then she always touched her right front head. It seems mild since she never cry for it and is gone in seconds. It happened 4 to 5 times for last two months. No other symptoms are obtained now.

Her family doctor suggests a head CT scan. I am not sure about this. Since she has nose sinus infection now, I think it is better do it after the infection and if the symptom getting worse.

Her mom accidently receive a lower back x-ray scan when she ware pregnant for one month. That is why wer are so worrying about.

Does anybody know if it could be a symptom of brain tumor?

Thanks very much,

Thanks in advance]]> Tue, 18 Oct 2011 22:37:14 GMT Steph http://my.braintumorcommunity.org/discussions/pediatric/2011/08/07/forums-temp-down-aug-8th http://my.braintumorcommunity.org/discussions/pediatric/2011/08/07/forums-temp-down-aug-8th Hello!

Awhile back we told you about our plans to launch a new and improved discussion forum section. We are happy to report that the new discussion area is almost here! The switch to the new discussion forum will take place on Monday August 8th. Please note that the forums will be temporarily unavailable on August 8th while we transfer content from the old system to the new system during that down time. You will be able to read all previous posts in the forum area during the short down period, but will not be able to post any new topics. We hope to make the transition as smooth as possible and appreciate your patience during the upgrade. We look forward to hearing your feedback about the new system when it’s up and running. Please feel free to call the Patient Services Line at 800.934.2873 or email us at info@braintumor.org with any questions.

Thanks everyone!

We have scheduled an upgrade to our current forums for Monday, August 8th, 2011. On this date all topics and replies posted in the forums will be moved to a new upgraded format. When you navigate to the My.BrainTumorCommunity forum page you will land on a different looking page than you are used to starting Monday, August 8th. We believe the new format will be easier to use and we will have a number of features available to you that are not available in this current version. To help you learn the new format we will set up a question and answer discussion in the new format titled, "Welcome to Discussions: Q & A." It will be located at the top of the page. Feel free to post any questions you have or review FAQs others are asking.

Additionally, you can also feel free to contact our Patient Services team at 800.934.2873 or at info@braintumor.org. Please note that your post history will be maintained with this upgrade. Your post count will not change and all your old topics and replies will be accessible in the new format.

We thank you for being a member of our interactive online community!


Sincerely,

Patient Services Team
