I am having a brain scan done, due to me having NF, I need to have brain scans done, not had one done for 10 years, but regularly go the opticians, this is when something was pick up by the opticians when I was younger.
I have had a few scans done because I have been scared of cancer, mainly due to NF slight increase risk of certain types of cancer (thanks to reading the intenet)
If I had a brain tumour I would be sick and not being able to focus, properly etc. I have had no seizures. but do shiver when I am cold.

I did asked my GP could he refer me, as I have not had a brain scan since 2002/2003 so must have been due for one. I am quite surprise I have been able to get a scan so quickly.
I was pretty quick getting an abdominal ultrasound done, even though I was given a number to phone to book it by one of the GPs, she did not want to refer me when I had pain in late 2012. This was another GP at the practice, I can see any of the GPs at the practice, prefer some over others.
I think people would noticed is something was serious wrong with me, I am eating okay.

I have not had any bad headaches or been sick, but often wonder why when I was 11 and 12, followed by 18 why the gaps in years were longer. I supposed the doctors don't like people having too many scans.
I go to the opticians and something will have shown through these, and would have been refer.
I think I been refer to for a scan, because I was worried about a lump on my back as well, which is NF lump and had for a long time.
I don't like these machines very tight spaces.
