View Full Version : ears inflamed - brain tumour worry

GP said my ear looks inflamed yesterday, even though I have had no pain or problems with my ears - if it was a brain tumour, would it have shown up as an inflamed ear, or would the other tests he did (co-ordination etc, which I passed with flying colours) have indicated a tumour?

If he thought it was a brain tumour I don't think he would have let you leave the surgery so be reassured by that.

What did he say about it?

Trust me that is not what you have. My dad about 8 years ago felt like he had flu and tests straight away highlighted he had a brain tumour, not one symptom like yours. He had immediate surgery that night and he lived for another 6 weeks. Trust me the symptoms are a lot stronger than yours and it is anxiety that is causing you to feel like you do.

Here for you.

Love Sal xx


Dont mess up the best things in your life, just because at present you are unsure who you are.

Yep me too probably Farr, I often feel fluey!

Your problem sounds like it is definitely your ears though, so try not to worry (easy to say I know).
