Symptoms of brain tumors don't usually fade in an out. So if your dizziness and nausea come and go (perhaps, like me, it's only there when you think about it) Then you're HIGHLY unlikely to have anything wrong with your brain. Sounds more like allergies to me, considering the season. Hope you feel better soon!

I'm so sorry to hear about those awful symptoms you're having. Hopefully it's just stress/anxiety. (Odds of it being a brain tumor at your age are extremely slim.) But I can tell you from experience that, even if it is a stress/anxiety situation, you do have to pay attention to that, too. The human body doesn't do well with extended periods of extreme stress. Autoimmune conditions are one of the many things that can result from this. I hope your parents are being supportive and will take you to see your doctor. You should be checked out thoroughly. Best wishes!

Ask your doctor, tell your parents that it would make you feel A lot a lot better if you can speak with a doctor and I'm sure they will take you then let him or her ease your mind!
