A guy has spoken up about his symptoms and how he was first written off as worried before receiving a grade three malignant tumor diagnosis.
In late 2023, Benjamin received a diagnosis of glioma, a grade three malignant brain tumor. Since then, the 25-year-old has spoken candidly.
About the first symptom he started having at the age of 18 and his experience talking to a doctor about his worries.
He claims that he was celebrating his birthday with his twin brother outdoors while enjoying a drink when’suddenly’ he started to see ‘flashing lights’ in his eyes.
“It was just a sensation I’ve never felt before, but it was really sunny and July so I just thought maybe it was that,” he adds in a video posted on YouTube by The Patient Story.
