I admire how my friend with a brain tumor was treated with her brain tumor. I have one that has returned. I have a question in that I have pain all the time. I was told it would be chronic because of the area of the brain my brain tumor is. It is in the left temporal area and I received IMRT 2 years ago and thus far my tumor is in 2nd stage the read on the MRI of the head. Which is miraculous. I have pain now all the time. It is on the left side of head down neck shoulder and bilat legs. If I do anything the pain is worse and I am a go getter. god is 1st in my life and that is why I have a good attitude other than having seizures that put me in depression prior to. It is weird. My question is different have you ever heard of someone have n a better feeling a clear head total relief when holding bilateral neck in c-spine area. C-spine 1-6.  ? what can be done   ? if when getting a MRI of head should that area get a MRI,also? Have you heard of any gadget or anything to have for that area? What a relief that would be. Maybe I should invent something to help others,too  : )  Thanks for your time    DKW BTS

Have you seen pain specialists?

Have you tried alternative methods such as acupuncture or biofeedback, stuff that would not move your spine?

Have they done a spinal MRI to see if there is more going on?
