Ongoing pressure headaches

[Xeonocide]

Woke up today again with the feeling of pressure on my forehead. This has been a daily occurance now for about five weeks. Pupils are dialated unevenly again as well (its always a different eye, this time its the left that's bigger). Nothing seems to give me any respite. I just want out of this hole. Already been to the GP and eye surgeon to no avail.

Suggestions, advise anyone?

Hi,

So are you saying the Dr. and Eye Dr. have taken a look at your eyes and see nothing wrong? Are you the only person that is seeing the different pupil dilation?

I know from a subjective point of view with Health Anxiety it's easy to see that one pupil looks different from the other, I believe some differences are perfectly normal anyway, but concentrating on it makes it seem like something is there when it really isn't.

As for the headaches, welcome to the world of the constantly stressed. Most likely these headaches are caused by tense neck and back muscles, or constantly frowning or furrowing your brow. I get a lot of tension headaches. Try using heat or massage on your upper back and neck. If it's posture related, try to change the way you sit and whenever you feel tense, feel whether your shoulders are stiff as well. They probably are and relaxing them should help a lot!

Yea all clear from both doctors. Saw one and he just gave me a clean bill of health. I wasn't happy with him though. Saw another and he did a quick neuro and seemed to actually care. Eye doctor (specialist) told me basically not to worry, and I asked specifically about then. Still just concerned because this I'd all recent and it got worse tonight when I bent over or if I clench my body up.

Feeling of Pressure yet again today but minor. Felt it most in bed before getting up. Maybe this is all just my imagination.... Pupils still ever slightly uneven, and a little pain when clenching up to use the bathroom (only briefly and could not repeat). I'm at a loss, had someone tell me that the pupils could be a clear link to tumor. Didn't need to hear that, and said to get an MRI; I'm to scared to and the doctors said that wasn't nessasary. I'm still worried. I don't want to die of this if I have it.

Also had someone in another forum say I should go for an MRI and that the pupils are a clear link to tumor. This makes me feel like hell. Even though the difference between the two aren't substantial and its not always even the same one.
