Hi everyone,
I posted last week about the fear of brain tumours. Ive always been a headcahey person, getting them for about 15 years (im 25 now). recently I have developed quite bad Health Anxiety and brain tumor is one of my fears. I have been increasingly anxious this past year and been suffering more with headaches, however recentlly I have had a sore (not really stiff) neck, pressure all over my face and head, pain behind my eyes, blurred vision occaisionally and just a general foggy not really there feeling. My doctor wouldnt give me an MRI so I got one privatley, and am waiting results. The neuro wasnt going to give me one however, I pretty much begged him - he seems to think its a mixture or tension headaches and migraines, however I think you never know if you have a brain tumor unless you look inside the brain!
Well, I had the MRI on Saturday morning and its Monday now and the wait is killing me! I called up but the secretary said the doctor will contact me when he has viewed he results. How are you supposed to wait for these things? My mind is doing overtime!!!
Im fed up with the docs saying its anxiety and stress, because I just want some answers, I feel so depressed and ill because of this pressure in my head and face and I just want an end to these feelings.
