Im at the end of my rope. I go to see the neurologist on Tuesday but, im scared out of mymind. For almost 2 months, Ive had really scary symptoms and I have myself convinced I have a brain tumor. Ive been to the ER for chest pain 3 times and for headaches 3 times since December. 2 chest Xrays, A chest CT scan, Blood work every time and a non contrast CT of my brain. Everything comes back normal. HOWEVER, CT scans can miss small tumors and issues in the back of the brain, CT scans can miss lung cancer and XRays and CT scans RARELY pick up breast cancer. Im 25 years old and have 2 children... Im terrified and having trouble waiting to see the neurologist. What if I finally get an MRI and I have a tumor... What if its in an inoperable spot or it grows back, What if its cancerous or cancerous and came from another location? I had a cyst on my nipple in December... What if I have breast cancer that spread to my brain or that spread to my lungs and then brain?!
These are my symptoms:
Head pressure ranging from mild to moderate through most of the day; Seems to be moderate towards the end of day or when I am in the car.
On and off headaches in the temple region and sinuses that can be sharp and range from mild to moderate; Never seem to be in the morning or when I wake up. They usually after I have been up for a few hours or after being at work and tends to be slightly sharper on the right side.
Tingling sensation in my head that kind of feels like when your foot falls asleep or the chills.
Nausea that is mild but, udually throughout the day.
Leg weakness in both legs that is mild.
*****Right pupil dialation; The right pupil dialates quite a bit when in indoor light. Also, my right eye lid seems to droop slightly (The drooping is something I have noticed for a few years) and the entire eye seems to be slightly higher up than the other.
Random upper back pain and tingling like pins and needles. Pain is usually on the lower right and pins and needles in on the lower left.
My neck hurts. Its not stiff really. Its more of a pain at the base of my skull and at the end of my neck where the shoulders meet.
My chest hurts. Not in the actual breast but more in the bone that is in the middle.
Past few days I cough now and then and have been sneezing a lot.
Im scared, Like really scared.
