Nope. Also, we don't really know what stutter amounts to, exactly. Most everything we do could be called "connected to brain activity"....

Had anyone noticed that they react faster, for example to a joke?

Had anyone noticed that they react faster, for example to a joke? Stuttering is connected to brain activity so I thought about all those times when someone tells a joke and I can clearly hear that I l...

Stuttering and Broca s Aphasia

Stuttering and Broca s Aphasia Are broca aphasia and stuttering similar ? Since broca aphasia patient also report not being able to say what they want to, which i guess is similar to most stutterers...

No such connection is known. Stutter isn't really correlated with anything, as far as I'm aware. Also, in terms of causes, not much is known so far....

What other medical conditions do you have?

What other medical conditions do you have? Hi all, first time poster, long time stutterer. So every now and then I get interested in what is actually going on in my brain when I stutter, and I always...

Actually researches have shown that lesions or damages in any cortical and subcortical areas can cause stuttering. For example, lesions in the pons ( https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/...

First, that sucks! Sorry about your tumor. Glad it's both benign and removable. When is your surgery? Given that speech is a motor act and the cerebellum is involved in coordinating motor movements...

No sir, it does not. The cerebellum's function is muscle coordination, balance, etc. It operates at a unconscious level, and does not participate in cognitive functions such as thinking or speaking. T...

Could a tumor in the cerebellum cause stutter?

Could a tumor in the cerebellum cause stutter? I suddenly started stuttering 20 years ago and I am still this way. Nothing has changed. I can't say particular type of words even when reading alone and...

Yes, this most likely is relevant to my stuttering situation as well....

Did your tinnitus start for a reason like loud noises? Mine didn't. Also the neurosurgen said the tumor is pretty old and it could be related to problems in speech motor control....

I went for the mri because of tinnitus. The neurosurgeon said that it SEEMS not to be related to tinnitus but the ear nerve is not far away from the tumor. Anyways it is VERY rare that a brain tumor w...

Interesting. I became aware of some tinnitus about a year ago and I just chalked it up to higher blood pressure. What caused you to get the MRI? Were there any other symptoms?...

The tinnitus. It's not really bad. A neurosurgeon called me today, he said it definitely doesn't look bad and it is possible to remove it but it's probably not needed. I didn't ask him about the possi...

I think it should be. I had to look it up but I've definitely resorted to cluttering in the past to avoid blocking. It seems like there's a lot of overlap....

It's most likely not cancerous. Neurologist told me he doesn't see how it could be cancerous. A cancer in the Cerebellum would cause very severe neurological symptoms in just a few weeks or months. He...

Given OP doesn't know if it's cancerous or not, OP doesn't know. Best of luck to OP. I hope it's superficial and easy to remove!...

I'm really sorry to hear that. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of tumor is it? Is it a benign one? Did doctors say if it was going to be easy to remove? Good luck and please keep us updated....

Damn. That really sucks. I'm sorry about your tumor. There's no way to really know if those symptoms are related. The cerebellum is important for motor control among many other things. Who knows. I ...
