Do I have symptoms of a brain tumor?

nousernameavailable profile image

I have been having headaches for the past 2 days. It is hard to concentrate. I've noticed my memory is off, too. I am 16 years old. Do I have symptoms of a brain tumour? Or is this just my anxiety disorder?

Anxiety as you now know can produce many many physical symptoms.

I don't want to appear at all dismissive but I doubt if you've a tumour.

You'd have to persuade your GP to arrange an Apptmt with a Neurologist and from there a Brain MRI - big stuff given your symptoms.

I have an undiagnosed Brain disorder and 18 MRIs later I've had to learn to help my anxiety by practising Mindfullness and Meditation

Maybe you'd like to think about trying that......it's not easy but it's better than the daily mind fog !

Keep well
