Re: Scared of brain tumor. Help??
Floaters are not indicative of brain problems. They're caused by a ton of things, none of them serious.
I've had floaters and visual snow for years but there's nothing I can really do about it. Mine are caused by stress and high blood pressure.
You said you have lupus, floaters can also be caused by the condition as well.
Since you had an eye appointment very recently, there's absolutely no way you've got a brain tumour, no matter what visual disturbances you're experiencing. If it were caused by a swelling in the brain/skull, it would have been picked up on by the optometrist as there would be a change in eye pressure as well as visible pressure on the optic nerve.
Totally normal to have floaters, I would say probably everyone gets them at some point in their life.
