Re: Constant headaches and pressure in head? Worried about a brain tumour!! :(
Haha, I'm 20 and only one has popped out :P
I noticed slight pain when I press right on top of my ear and behind it on my skull, but no where else :wacko:

Must be genetic because my brother had to get his out when he was like 14! Have you tried massage therapy in case tension is a factor? (I apologize if you already answered that, my brain is super frazzled today--about to go into a situation that's really sparking my anxiety so I'm like short-circuiting, heh.)
Re: Constant headaches and pressure in head? Worried about a brain tumour!! :(
Wow, that's very young for your brother!
I actually haven't tried any type of therapy, have you gotten any before?
Re: Constant headaches and pressure in head? Worried about a brain tumour!! :(
I haven't, though I want to very much. Basically, I went to many doctors and specialists in a short period of time when I could no longer swallow a few months ago. Nobody was able to help or take me seriously, so I'm really disillusioned now with doctors, which is giving me hesitation to go back in. I do feel a little better when my friend rubs my shoulders and neck, but I haven't booked a professional massage yet. I think it might help though.
Re: Constant headaches and pressure in head? Worried about a brain tumour!! :(
Is your swallowing doing better?
It annoys me so much when doctors don't pay attention to what you're trying to say. :(
You definitely should book with a professional, it can help with any tension and help you relax:yesyes:
Re: Constant headaches and pressure in head? Worried about a brain tumour!! :(
Well..yes and no. It still feels really uncomfortable to swallow, and I still have pains in the front of my neck + muscle tension. Actually, it all started around the same time as the pressure and muscle tension elsewhere. But while I went a month eating less than 100 calories a day, I'm now pushing myself to do more. So I went from applesauce to mashed potatoes to pasta to toast, and I'd like to someday eat chicken again! I lost a lot of weight in a very short amount of time so I'm trying to gain/maintain and that makes me try to forget the difficulties. :D
Since my insurance is leaving me soon, I'll probably end up just paying for massage therapy and hope for the best, haha. :P
Re: Constant headaches and pressure in head? Worried about a brain tumour!! :(
I wish you luck in hopes your throat gets better!
Hopefully everything works out :yesyes:
Re: Constant headaches and pressure in head? Worried about a brain tumour!! :(
Many thanks, and I wish you luck in getting all this sorted--I know you will, it's just a matter of finding the appropriate treatment!
