Sounds like new mom syndrome coupled with some side effects from your new meds. Don't freak. Its not a brain tumor. And don't look it up or you d swear you have one .. Just tell you doctor you symptoms so he can regulate your meds and if you feel worse make sure you tell him. The drugs you taking can give you all these symptoms but they might just need to settle in your system. Call your MD. Its not a tumor
Go to WebMD.com and look up symptoms for brain tumor.
Instead of guessing, you should see a doctor. That would be the best way to find out what is happening.
well if you had a brain tumor you would be having sever headaches and seizure fits.
I don't think this is a brain tumor. this is also something you should have asked you physician about. he/she probably would have factored that out for sure.
this, I think, is autonomic in your body. it's just not functioning the way it should be, but not far off par.
if it continues don't hide anything from your doctor. be honest with them.
easiest way to answer that question is an MRI - tell your doctor you may be crazy - but you won't rest till you know and if you have to go to a hundred doctors till you find one that will refer you - you will. Brain MRI could also help tremendously with solving migraine problem.
Yes, a brain tumour is a possibility, however, it is important to rule out other options as well. Your symptoms describe many possible diagnosis' so please get yourself to the doctor and be honest with how you are feeling and what your symptoms are, demand that you are not overlooked. For the mean time: don't worry, its a waste of energy and cannot possibly change the outcome of this situation.
its called STRESS. all brain tumors have seizures associated with it. stress can cause horrible symptoms, but until you have more then 2 seizure blame stress.
I highly doubt it. My sister had a brain tumor when she was sixteen. She had something on her forehead that was diagnosed as ringworm. When it didn't go away a specialist knew right away she had a brain tumor. It was the size of an orange! They removed it and she has been fine ever since. She is 39 now and runs Apple's website. She has a metal plate in her head which sets off the metal detectors at airports and other places. I wouldn't worry too much either way. Her surgery took place in 1985 and they knew exactly what they were doing. In 2008 even if you had a brain tumor you would be fine. It is like HIV/AIDS used to be a death sentence and now people are living normal lives with a drug cocktail. My advice is to relax. Your mind is probably reacting to the fact that you are taking medicine for your brain. When I say 'your mind' I mean your conscious thought process as opposed to your actual brain. When I started taking anti-depressants I complained to my doctor that before I took them in the morning I felt extremely disoriented. He said it was possibly my attitude towards taking them. At first I didn't really want to take them. It kind of made sense in my case. Now my new doctor tells me to take them before I go to bed. The disoriented feeling has disappeared. You are obviously stressed. That's your mind working overtime possibly.
