Floaters in vision?? anyone experience this

Can a left occipital lesion cause pressure at the top of your head. I have a lesion in my occipita lobe and doctor says its a birth anomoly or low-grade tumor, but only time will tell. But i started getting an increase in floaters in my field of vision w/squiggly lines. I'm getting random shooting pains in my head, down my face, Whats happening to me? Also I've been getting very bad pins and needles all over, strange. What to do.

Floaters are a yellow flag for diabetes. You need a glucose tolerance test or an insulan clamp protocol.

Sorry to hear this.  I have a similar story symptoms-wise. I am convinced that my bad floaters (squiggly lines) are correlated in some way to my pain symptoms since they occurred suddenly and at the same time. I've done a battery of tests w/no clear diagnosis. Good luck with your diagnosis.
