What symptoms of a brain tumor do you have? Remember, many symptoms of diseases and disorders overlap, you may have something less serious. However, if you feel you have a tumor, the best thing to do is to get yourself to a hospital and have an mri scan done.

Why don't your parents belive you? Have you shown them the list of symptoms and talked to them about what you are experiencing?

I think what might help you right now is to relax a bit. Often brain tumors can be removed and chemotherapy works. Try to explain to your parents. Insist that you have to see a Dr. As a start- your family physician who will refer you to a neurologist maybe.

I sincerely hope you feel better and you don't have a brain tumor. Take care and please keep posting on how you are doing.

Dazz if you compare your stypoms to aniexty stypoms most of them all te same....Your doctor will look in your eyes and see if there is pressure on the back of your eyes that is one of the 1st signs,,,,i think like you my mind wont be at rest till I have a ct scan or a mri...Im just hoping I have nothing wrong with my head.....I dont actaully get bad headaches my head just fills weird it dont ache he hurts sometimes.

Yeah I sometimes feel like pressure is building in my forehead or something.

But honestly, in america maybe 17,000 people a year are diagnosed with brain tumors, out of the many many millions that live here. So the chances that its you are pretty slim. And yeah I sorta also feel wierd in the head, but then I say to myself, I am a hypocondriac, and to a hypocondriac everything means certain death. If you look up hypocondria on webmd it kinda tells all.

But tell me how your mri or ct scams turn out, if you turn out ok itle give me peace of mind that im ok as well.
