A 'sport' teenager who doctors thought was suffering from vertigo has been diagnosed with a rare brain tumour. Jayce Robinson, 15, was rushed to hospital after collapsing during a PE lesson and diagnosed with vestibular schwannoma - a benign tumour that grows between the brain and skull close to the ear.
Mum Kirsty Newton, 38, said it wasn't the first time her son had collapsed and that he had been suffering with periods of nausea and dizziness for 18 months.
Medics initially thought that the teen from Eccles, Salford, had vertigo and Jayce was prescribed anti-sickness medication. However, he continued to feel unwell and his condition soon became more 'severe', Manchester Evening News reports.
It wasn't until last month that specialists eventually diagnosed the teen with the tumour, which has now left him deaf in one ear.Kirsty said: “The collapsing was a bit more severe, it happened after school and they rang me and I had to take him to A&E, they checked him over and he seemed okay.“They kept him for monitoring for a few hours and he seemed alright but it happened again a few times.
