Glioblastoma symptoms depend on the location of the tumor. Symptoms also may depend on the type of tumor, its size and how quickly it’s growing.

Common signs and symptoms include:

  • Headache, particularly one that hurts the most in the morning.
  • Nausea and vomiting.
  • Confusion or a decline in brain function, such as problems with thinking and understanding information.
  • Memory loss.
  • Personality changes or irritability.
  • Vision problems, such as blurred vision, double vision or loss of peripheral vision.
  • Speech difficulties.
  • Seizures, especially in someone who hasn’t had seizures before.
