Brain tumor fear!

Cancer is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. It doesn't come and go nor does it stop once it starts.

I'll have the "Told Ya So Gang" on standby

Thank you - the headache persists but the pressure is there when I stand where the headache is.......has to be something abnormal stuck there or growing....

You're right... It's called tension from anxiety and possibly allergies Let us know what the doctor says.

I get this and I’m also convinced I have a brain tumour, it’s like a pressure on the top of my head and my face goes numb and it hurts behind my ears, I’ve only had it the last few months and my gp says it’s part of my anxiety but the more I get it the more paranoid I am

Hi there

Yes mine is prominently the forehead pressure, when I stand up the pressure increases and my ears go all blocked....its horrible, the pressure remains all day!

Sometimes doctors (in my experience) will just send you off for whatever test so that you can get reassurance (because they can tell that we have anxiety!) and move on with your life. Or maybe there's that .01% chance of something they need to rule out. Getting a referral is not a legitimate reason to worry.

I'm no doc either but like others have said this sounds like tension headaches to me.

Hello,


Just wondering how you were getting on with the head issues ? Over the weekend I felt fine but since getting back to work today (where I feel most tense) I can sense the dreaded brain-fog / head pressure / dizziness slowly building. Was looking forward to going out to watch the football tonight, but will see how it feels when get home


I think having the scan is a great idea for your own reassurance - best of luck
