Well first of all I live in Canada and yes it's free to get everything you need done.but with that said I beleave you get what you pay for.I have been over the past two months having headaches every day and they will not go away.doesn't matter if I take anything for it.I also have lost my short term memory and a good chunk of my long term.I also am having trouble talking at times were my speech will get very slurred.I am blacking out often.for example if I'm driving from point A to point B I can't remember anything about the drive there or what happened to get me to point B.In the past week I have started to get dizzie.I can only compare it to being very drunk amd getting the spins.Also my eye sight has been getting blured.I have had a ct scan and I went in today amd it showed nothing up.my doctor then said that ct scans don't mean that there's nothing there amd that he can't get me the real test I need quickly due to the way are medical system is here.and that he thinks I should go to the er one night complaining about everything amd hope they do all my tests right there.

My question to everyone is do you think I could have brain cancer or something else wrong in my brain?and how worried should I be?

i have looked up the symptons of brain tumors and in your above thread you listed quite a few of them.
however it might be something else, so your best bet is to go to the ER and get everything checked out.

have you suffered any blows to the head in recent years?

i myself am worried that i have a brain tumor as i have been suffering from consistent headaches for over a week now.

i hope everything goes well with you, wish all the best = )
