Possible Tumour ? Posted: 07-16-07 06:55am
Hi.
I have some strange sensations now and
then.
These sensations happen rarely, about 5 or
6 times a month.
First I get dizzy, then some spots start
flickering before my eyes that expand
until I have difficulties in reading.
After 20-30 minutes I get a mild to medium
headache that lasts 2-3 hours.
This happends about 2-3 times per year for
the last 3 years.
These moments happen randomly, one time it
happened in the disco, one time at home
working.
I have to admit I am a computer addict, I
sit about 6-8 hours per day on a computer,
as a webdesigner, I am obliged to this.
I don't have speech impairmanets, hair
loss, balance problems, numbness or loss
of memory.
Is this a possible tumour or just an eye
problem?
thanks

It sounds to me like you have migraine
headaches.
I would definately see a doctor though to
rule out something more serious, because
headaches can be an indicator of a brain
tumor and the sooner a tumor is found, the
better (in most cases.)
Generally headaches stemming from tumors
are in the same place everytime they occur
(in the area where the tumor is located.)
That being said, I had migraines, tension
headaches, and ice pick headaches in all
areas of my head for many years before my
tumor was found.. now that my tumor has
been removed these headaches have
basically stopped.
Good luck to you, and I'll be sure to keep
you in my prayers!
