How does one not get an MRI immediately when they experience bouts of vertigo at that age? I am NOT criticizing him or his family; I’m truly just stumped. That’s the first thing we did for my nephew and the same for my son.

Many prayers sent for this young man and his family.

(The American Brain Tumor Association looks to be purple.)
March is brain tumor awareness month, and people that have had brain tumors often wear gray for awareness. I know that because of my cousin. Benign, it's been maybe 5 years and she's fine, so hopefully it will be the same for Greg.
Gray and purple would look awesome together.

To hell with football just heal this kid with his entire life ahead of him. Hopefully that includes living his dream in the NFL but a healthy life more than anything. He has always seemed like one of those guys that the entire team likes from his energy.

Dang, I am praying for this young man
that's so much...brain surgury?
I have a colleague whose wife has a large brain tumor, they're too afraid to remove it because it's like a life and death outcome based on where it's located (in the back of the brain)
her current quality of life is terrible...always something going on
so wow, a brain tumor
prayer and more prayer that's all we got at this point

With vertigo, there's often a more mundane issue, like an inner ear infection or issue, going on. An MRI is a pretty expensive and drastic leap right out the gate.

Prayers to Greg and the family. I hope they feel the love and support from Tiger Nation!

MRI immediately
They ruled out Meniere’s, orthostatic hypotension etc. before they did a CT or MRI when I had vertigo. Never did really pin down the cause, but I’m guessing there are hoops to jump through before imaging is ordered.

Bilbeau was "dudes sister" a member of the medical staff or anything related? Then it wasn't a HIPPA violation.
