Default brain tumor? cancer? help please?

my dad has had a heart attack and then a year after that he had a brain tumor . Now he can hardly move and acts like he has restless leg sentrum. When he walks hes very slow and he is only 42 . His eyes are allways blood shot and his eyes are caving in . its hard to explain but like an old man it look like hes wearing brown eyeshadow if that helps . i need help he has major memory problems and im afraid this time maybe the brain tumor has come back or maybe he has cancer. Its really painful to be around him because hes mad at one poin and then he nice , One day he called me by my brothers name . if you have any clue or think you know what he might have this time please help me .

I;m really sorry your dad has to go thru all this espesally after he already had brain cancer,,sounds like he needs to go to the hosp, and get evaluated again; and find out what;s causing his eyes to be red and his anger and memory problems, When he calls you names he knows not what he;s saying as his brain is under lots of stress and he;s not himself., See if he;ll go to the hospital to get himself checked out...good luck and god bless your dad and your family and thank you for being a sweet loving daughter; and i will pray for him in my nightly prayers .I wish you the best and don;t stress yourself out either as you have a load on your plate right now,,,,,,,

anything i, or anyone else, says would be pure speculation and guessing. does he say he's ok? does he go to his doctor for checkups? oh hon, i just can't answer, and would be wrong to try. my heart goes out to you and your dad. i can offer you support and maybe find a resource for you to talk to. email me if you want. god bless you and yours!

I had brain surgery to remove a brain tumor 3 years ago. At first I had an MRI every 6 months and now I have one every year, to watch in case the brain tumor grows back.

Does your father have regular MRI's? If not he needs to talk to his doctor about getting an MRI scheduled to rule out another brain tumor. If the brain tumor has not returned then he needs to see a neurologist to treat his symptoms.
