Brain tumor fear :(

[AJ59]

I've been having a lot of fear that I have a brain tumor... :(

I've been feeling a lot of pressure in my forehead, around my nose, in addition to minor pain slightly above my eyes. It's accompanied by a fogginess in the head (definitely not vertigo or even lightheaded). I also have quite a bit of congestion -- not runny or discharge though and no sneezing.

I've had this for quite some time and feel like I've experienced it before, probably 5 years ago. I had this sensation back in February, but it went away for the whole month -- I believe because I was taking Allegra.

I sleep fine and feel refreshed after a nap or waking up in the morning. I wish I had access to Allegra but unfortunately do not. No other symptoms really and I'm just worried it's something terrible. Absolutely fixated with it.

Any advice or similar experience?

Your symptoms sound extremely similar to mine when I get sinus infections or head colds. Perhaps an antibiotic can help clear if up fast! Don't worry about a brain tumor, this does NOT sound like one

Sounds exactly like a sinus infection. Brain tumors are rare, and the symptoms are very different from what you described. The congestion and drainage is very telling. It could be a sinus infection or allergies or hay fever. I would rule out brain tumor.

You are afraid of a brain tumor but just described a sinus infection and allergies to a T.

Yes, probably allergies and sinus infection.
Brain tumor symptoms don't come and go.
