Need some reassurance suffered HA for nearly 3 years now. BEEN having CBT didnt really help. Havent been to the doctors in a while as used to be there 4 n 5 times a week. I have just had a baby a week old tody already have 2 other chi;dren. The reason for my state of panic is i keep feeling lots of pressure all over my head, getting sharp shooting pains in sides of head near to my temple and my haed feels sore. Bouts of dizzyness come and go and im now worrying i cant get the words out i want to say. Just want to enjoy my time with my family but convinced iv got a brain tumour please reply thank you xxx

I have been having similar symptoms. I started with vertigo at the end of November and a feeling of pressure on my left side of my head and shooting pains near my temple also. I have terrible brain fog and feel like I can't think straight and feel like I have to think about what I am saying to get the words out. Had my eyes checked and ok been to see 3 different gp's and told the last one the other day about my tumour worries and he said there is nothing to suggest that, no alarm signals for it. I have been referred to ent specialist and I go this Thursday.
I know how you feel and I keep googling and I have convinced myself it's a tumour and lay in bed and playing out the scenario of them telling me I am dying and having to tell my 2 children. It's mental torture.

Thanx for reply good to hear we not alone. I can totally understand your worries but it seems no matter how many docs tell you theres nothing to worry about you just cant shake it off it truely is a vicious circle. Iv tried distarction but when i get the shooting pains i stop what im doing and PANIC
