One morning about 4 months ago after a night of drinking I woke up with the hangover head (lightheaded ish) feeling and it has never went away only gotten worse to where I have pressure in my forehead that moves around and usually settles in temples. I get headaches in one side of my head at my temple. I get a dizzy feeling but never lose balance andi see like flickers every now and then in my periphreals
it's just my eyes that feel like that. Uneasy feeling in my stomach and I'm freaking out thinking I have a brain tumor and I'm terrified. Even though the docs have told me I don't have symptoms of a tumor on my brain it's all can think about. I am terrified and I have never been a a person that's been stressed or worried about much. Could this be anxiety and I just don't have a reason for it ? I'm tired of feeling like I have a tumor and I'm going to die 😨😨

Hi, I've been suffering health anxiety for 5 years now. I have these symptoms. I get the lights in the vision every day when I'm at my worst. I to thought I had a brain tumour. Had a scan, no tumour. If your doctors think you're ok you need to really try to trust them. You're really in tune with these feelings now, hyper aware of them. They won't go away until you just accept them and not care about them anymore. Try to focus on something else, something positive. Maybe take some pain killers to stop the pain so you don't focus on it constantly. You're going to be ok 😊
hiya,, the flickerin and headache if bad sounds like a migraine,,i get them when stressed and takes a day to get over it,and the blurry vision leads to a banging headache,where u cant face bright lights,,but if your that concerned go to the GP and ask for advice/scan,,tc
Omg I can’t express how much I can relate to you. I am the exact same....... said to the doctor I’m terrified I’ve got a brain tumour because of exact symptoms. I’m on sertraline for 3 weeks now and headaches aren’t as bad xx
