It all started 12 months ago when I went to my family doctor with headaches at that point he thought it was just tension headaches about 3 weeks after I went to see him I went back to him again and he refereed me to a nurologist who thought it was stress he gave me a full phyisical examination and found nothing wrong but I am still getting the headaches again along with sometimes vision problems like floaters and when I move my hand it doesn't seem right and sometimes blurried vision with a black line in my eyes I went to get my eyes checked out at a eye hospital 6 weeks ago and nothing was wrong no pressure at the back of the eyes or anything he said do you have any other symptoms I said I have headache ( sometimes feels like there's a lump in my head at the side and something growing down and up ) weakness sometimes in my arms and legs and pain in my left arm he told me it sounds like migranes however the past 3 weeks have been terrible I've been feeling sick eye problems aching arm when I get up and headache I just can't seem to get rid of my doctor again told me it was stress and migrane and he couldn't see anything wrong when he did a physical examination but referred me to see a nurologist in 6 weeks time I'm really scared I have a brain tumour and that it may kill me I'm 18 years old and am a male and I have no cancer suffers in my family I'm that scared I force myself to stay awake in case I don't wake up again

Am surprised with those symptoms the doctor did not perform a MRI on you to see if there is a tumor growing. Just doing a "physical checkup" reveals nothing. He does not have X-ray vision.

The neurologist will probably order a MRI for you. They don't like to just take someone else's word about symptoms like yours. They want to make sure you don't have a tumor. Don't be afraid to get one. It does not hurt. The only hard part about a MRI is you have to be still thoroughout the procedure.

I no I'm really worried now that it might be a brain tumour 6 weeks is a really long time to wait and it doesn't look like I can get an appointment any quicker

Sorry to post back but my I was thinking it could be migranes as my family suffer from them

Ive read before that the thought of tumors are from paranoia, stress, and anxiety. Id trust the doctor and forget about it. The more they put into it, the worse it gets for you. Specially with the bill. Just trust and relax, and it goes away.
