Can a acoustic neuroma cause svere headache and neck pain?
My wife has an acoustic neuroma and has had it treated by Gamma Knife. She has had persistent headaches from just behind her ear and running toward her neck. Her tumor is 2cm and is putting a little pressure on her brain stem.
This is a little different than the ones I know of. Most occur in the internal auditory meatus and cause profound loss of hearing. If she is getting pressure on the brain stem, then pain can occur and other complications too.
