Often we do not pay attention to small problems related to our body and keep ignoring them. But sometimes these small problems become big problems. When we reach the doctor, we realize that it was not as minor as we thought. Same thing happened with a woman, who suddenly started having headache one day. When she woke up, she noticed pain in her head and swelling in her eyes (Shocking diagnosis after headache). She thought it was a minor thing. But when she investigated, she found such a thing that the woman lost her feet.
According to the Mirror website, when 41-year-old Nikki Bennett from England felt pain, she looked up her symptoms on Google. His symptoms matched those of temporal arteritis. In this condition the veins start swelling. When she went to the hospital for the first time, the initial tests did not reveal anything special. However, later his doctor asked him to undergo a CT scan. This scan revealed that there was an enlarged piece of flesh in the front part of the left side of his brain, which was actually a tumor.

tumor in the brain
Nikki told that before the tumor was detected, her life was going very well. She had changed her profession, she shifted from accountancy department to customer service. Last year also he had a headache, when the doctor gave him steroids to eat. But when swelling started appearing above the eyes along with headache, he felt that now he should go to the doctor again. Even the doctors initially thought that nothing would happen to him. He did the initial scan just to console Nikki, so that she would stop worrying. But when he came to know about a tumor the size of an orange, he was shocked.
Woman got meningitis
She was immediately admitted to the Walton Center NHS Foundation Trust. The doctors were surprised to see how despite having such a big tumor, she was able to go to the gym or drive because she could have an attack at any time. Her tumor was successfully removed and after about 10 days she was discharged and reached home but she started having headaches again. Doctors asked him to be re-admitted immediately. Tests revealed that he had meningitis, which is a type of brain condition caused by viruses or bacteria. This time she was admitted to the hospital for 3 and a half weeks. Now he has to undergo skull replacement surgery in January.
