psuedo tumor

I have recently been told that I may have psuedo tumor, I go for testing tomorrow. My question is this, I am not obese no head trauma no medications none of the things that I have read that cause this problem. Is there something similar to psuedo tumor that it coud be? I am 31 years old  5'5 164 pounds and very active. For the most part I am very healthy, some back problems and ear problems but that is it. Thank you.

Some times it just bad luck.  Be thankful it's not a real brain tumor causing the swelling. Read the previous posts on PT. Good luck.
