I'be been having issues with a bunch of body parts, and its been affecting my work life a lot. At first i thought i could handle it, but ive been getting nerve issues that are affecting my brain. Im getting light headed, amnesiac, and i have a large amount of trouble focussing. It almost feels like my brain has this pressure on its left side and as soon as it starts, my brain scrambles and becomes useless for the rest of the day. I know my brother had a full blown GBM (Glioblastoma) but i never got myself checked for it, beyond once many years ago. But now, im wondering if there's some kind of link between the two

1) Take a sick day to have your brain checked out. Take sick days as needed until you get a diagnosis.

2) Once you have your diagnosis, take FMLA if your situation warrants it. Ask your doctor whether you should take FMLA.

3) If you can't get a useful diagnosis, come back here and give us an update. At that point we will have more information and will be able to give you better advice.
