Brain Tumor?

Question: Dear all, I am a 24 year old girl. I am very healthy and has never had any major problem, surgery etc. A week ago I woke up suddenly with a sharp pain in the back of my left eye. Back then it was just in the eye and had no headaches. The same day I went for a complete checkup at my eye doctor and he said it was probably stress or forcing/straining my eyes studying for my test. This week however, for the past 4 days I have also experienced headaches. As though the eye pain projects to the head as well- like a burning iron is on my head. I am scared to DEATH. Can this be a brain tumor? stress?

Answers:
Why do you thinking negative way? your doctor told you the other ,follow his instructions, don't make your mindl gloomy for nothing.

Other Answers:
I think you are fine, but of course I am not a doctor. If you are really scared go to the doctor and tell him your concerns. But I think that you are just fearing the worst, I do this often. If I have one symptom I start to notice tons of other things that I think MUST be some deadly disease. But it's not of course. You are probably under stress, and now your fear has created even more stress!

Do not keep wondering, go back to your doctor immediately and share your concerns and DEMAND to be tested. If it is a tumour the best case scenario is to catch and treat it as early as possible. Don't wait another minute. Please call your doctor now. If only for your own peace of mind, as you must be going through hell considering this as a possibility. Even if it's true, atleast when you know you can formulate an action plan which will automatically make you feel somewhat better.

The only way to be sure is to have an MRI. However, an MRI can be expensive. It is worth the money for peace of mind though.

A brain tumor — primary or secondary — can cause a variety of signs and symptoms because it can directly press on or invade brain tissue. This can damage or destroy areas responsible for sight, movement, balance, speech, hearing, memory or behavior. Pressure from a brain tumor can also cause surrounding brain tissue to swell (edema), further increasing pressure and symptoms.

Signs and symptoms can include the following:

New onset or change in pattern of headaches
Headaches that gradually become more frequent and more severe
Unexplained nausea or vomiting
Vision problems, such as blurred vision, double vision or loss of peripheral vision
Gradual loss of sensation or movement in an arm or a leg
Difficulty with balance
Speech difficulties
Confusion in everyday matters
Personality or behavior changes
Seizures, especially in someone who doesn't have a history of seizures — as with epilepsy, for example
Hearing problems
Hormonal (endocrine) disorders
