Symptoms of CARCINOMATOUS MENINGITIS
Headaches, nausea, and vomiting may accompany the increase in cerebrospinal fluid which occurs in hydrocephalus. In addition, unsteady gait, urinary incontinence, and problems with memory may occur.
Blurred vision, double vision, facial weakness, numbness, difficulty swallowing or talking, balance problems, and decreased hearing may also occur if the cranial nerves are affected. Numbness or weakness may occur in the arms of legs if the spinal cord or nerves exiting the spine become involved with the metastatic cancer.
