A ct would show it. I would not spend anymore time worrying and be thankful the tests are normal. Everyone who has it gets it picked up on a ct then confirmed by biopsy.have you had bloods etc. Maybe its a nerve or mscular thing perhaps ask for MRI x

Hi Chrissyred, as emilyt36 has said I would think the CT scan would have picked up any tumours. Why don't you keep a diary of when your symptoms occur so you can discuss this with your GP to see if there is any other cause. Again as emilyt36 said, try not to worry, your doctor seems to be giving you all the right tests.

Good Luck Rab
