[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. By your history and description, in my opinion, your mother is having local brain recurrence of craniopharyngioma. It is known to cause local recurrence. Her symptoms are mostly due to compression and pressure on surrounding brain areas because of tumor mass. So better to first get done MRI brain for the diagnosis of recurrence. And yes, radiotherapy is the only option for her. AIMS is best Institute for radiotherapy, so consult radiation oncologist and start appropriate radiotherapy.
