eye sight loss and severe headache Posted: 01-24-08 03:12am
My brother has been having eye sight loss
and sever headaches problems for about a
year he has had 2 episodes of this so for
each of them lasting for a period of 5-7
days. Following the first episode we
visited the doctor but all we were told
was it might be the sign of mild
concussion. Since the first episode has
passed my brother has stopped playing
football for past 2 years and just about a
weak ago he had the same pain but he
described it as being more intense this
time . He said this time he would have to
wait about 30 sec for his vision to come
back to him and following that it would be
a severe pain right down the center of the
brain and would progress inward. we did
receive an appointment for 14 feb but if
anyone has any suggestions on what it
could be or what it is could you please
post reply. Also my brother is 17 year
old, weighs about 180lb and his height is
6'0 inches.
-Thank You

Its important that your brother goes to
the medical appointment on the 14th.
Some individuals that suffer from
migraines suffer a degree of vision loss.
Unfortunately vision loss can also be a
product of an abnormal mass in the brain
pressing against the vital sight related
structures.
If he was a relative of mine I would be
pushing hard for an MRI.
