Well I caved in and I went to the dr, mainly about my ear but last night I noticed my right eye was hurting around the outside the bone felt bruised to touch, just at the side of my temple then I noticed my right temple is numb to touch. This together with my headaches made me thinking 'omg tumour, clot.....' I really felt sick with worry.
I went to the dr, I didn't mention tumour I just said about the ear pressure, he checked my ear and said 'well they look better than they were, just keep taking your spray' better than they were, I thought he said last time they were fine?????:-] anyway he said my sinuses are fine and that the headaches are nothing to do with that because my headaches are just at the crown of my head, it feels like a brick moving around in my head, very odd. So I told him that and about the numbness, he said it sounded like a migrane but I thought migranes were VERY bad headaches and all over the eyes?
He checked my eyes so I know from this I should surely be reassured that there is no tumour because am I right in thinking a dr can tell from checking the eyes if you have a tumour? he said migranes can cause numbness on the face but in my head im thinking 'yes so can tumours'. He asked if when I went to bed the headache was worse, it does hurt abit when im lying down but I know why he is asking that because my auntie had a brain tumour and when she lay down the pain was far worse.
I am still worrying and ive been the friggin dr. My bp was fine last week so I know my bp would be sky high if I had anything like a tumour. I also had bloods done begining of feb and im sure that would of shown some highs. I had a ct scan in November on my sinuses but surely they would of spotted a growth then.
My dh said his temples are less sensitive to touch so he thinks im looking for things but im not, my right temple deffinatly feels numb to touch, my right eye is also flickering but I forgot to tell the dr that.
I am a bloody nightmare at the moment. I just want to sleep, its the only time I don't worry:blush: I am sorry for posting again but I don't know where to turn at the moment.
