What Causes Headache With Brain Bleed From Melanoma Tumor?
My sister was hospitalized afer a brain bleed from a melanoma tumor in her brain. She has lost the vision in her left eye as well as her perifial vision. She has only been out of the hospital for a week, and is still having headaches, should we be concerned??? What are the odd that it will start bleeding again? Because of the bleed does it up her chances of other tumors showing up in her brain?

Dear
I am sorry for the symptoms your sister is suffering
Unfortunately headache is symptom of cerebral bleeding no matter the cause
The risk that it can rebleed is present but it is understandable not from headache but from other neurologic sign( such as paralyses or epileptic seizures or somnolence )
Hope your sister will be healthy and stable
Best regards
