A 8-year old child presents in the Emergency Department (ED) complaints of intermittent headache for a few weeks now. The parents tells the triage nurse that the child has had nausea & vomiting for the last couple of days, has difficulty reading, and seems to be “off balance” when getting out of bed in the morning. The physician orders an MRI of the child’s head, neck, and chest. What might you as the triage nurse suspect is causing this child’s symptoms?
