Headache
Headaches In addition there may be headaches if the skull is involved due to pressure on nerves and blood vessels. Some patients also develop a larger size of the head. [news-medical.net]
Headaches and hearing loss may occur when Paget’ disease affects the skull. The diagnosis is made by correlating the clinical findings with the blood level of alkaline phosphatase and in many cases the X-ray findings. [rheum-care.com]
Headache, loss of vision, and hearing loss can occur when bones of the skull are affected. With very widespread Paget's disease, it is possible to develop congestive heart failure due to an increased workload on the heart. [medicinenet.com]
