I think I have a brain tumor

It seems to be wedged between my right occipital lobe and cerebellum - because every once in awhile, I'll just lose my balance or suddenly become STUPIDLY inept with fine motor controls for a few seconds, and every couple of weeks (actually it used to be EVERY Monday on the Monday, but it's died down) I have RECOCKULOUS migraines accompanied by flashing images in my left eye.

Actually, more likely than a tumor, I took a nasty hit to the back of the head at some point in time. This still doesn't account for why I'm so emotionally and socially retarded, though. Those are much more complex functions distributed to other assorted bits and pieces of the brain.

Just thought I'd share 😛
 
you were probably dropped on the head as a child....whether on purpose or on accident is still up for debate 😛

That would suck though, in the middle of landing your chopper and you start going nutso. You then manage to land the chopper upside down.

someone get the cattle prod STAT he is havign delusions of being in school and actually interacting with other humans again! 😛
 
I have a bump in the same spot. some months it is there and others it isn't. I don't have headaches and I don't get stupid though.
 
Go to your locak ER, tell them you hace the worst headache of your life, they'll run you through the CAT scanner & find out for sure..

Seriously though, you're in your late teens? early 20's?

It more than likely nothing, just your body finishing up growth spurts if you're as young as I seem to remember, and the headaches are likely caused by stress. But a CAT scan won't hurt you, except for your pocketbook😀

I had a 24 year old female MVC patient this morning, with a broken wrist, picked up a freacking mass 2X the size of her heart on the chest x ray. Hopefully, it's early enough/she's young enough she can beat it if it's not lung cancer, the radiologist suspected it was a t cell lymphoma...

If there's something in there that's going to get me, I'd prefer not to know about it...

... Wait... Think of all the girls I could get if I'm all like "I have brain cancer."

Sh!t.

Because I'm not. When I die, I die. I'm not afraid of mortality.

Death is one thing, but migraines? :shudder;

Try a migraine while working on the helpdesk.

Isn't that redundant? 😛

Close, but not quite.
 
I went for an MRI when I started getting migraines, and it was pretty cool. I convinced the lab attendant to let me see the pics as they were developed...

FYI...eyeballs look weird on an MRI...oh, and the noises it makes are cool.

I wouldn't suggest it to someone who gets clostraphobic though...
