help scared of brain tumor

[helpme12345]

Hi i am i have been suffering from constant headaches for about 3 months and i am admittedly a hypochondriac. I am basically scared that i have a brain tumor, my headaches are best in the morning and build up throughout the day and subside just before bed. But all i want to know is that my headaches did subside for a few weeks recently before coming back now. Is it possible that i may be serious if they did subside.

Hey,

I suffered from constant headaches at the start of the year. I had them for months on end, now they come on and off. Generally the symptoms of a brain tumor are not chronic headaches, so i wouldn't worry too much if I was you. Chronic anxiety (which us hypochondriacs suffer a lot of!) is probably the most common cause of headaches due to muscle tension. Check in with your doctor if your headaches are worrying you, but it's most likely that they are just stress and anxiety related, especially because they start off okay and build up during the day.
