What could be causing this weird feeling on my head? help I'm scared of brain tumor

[yadielfeliciano]

I feel ridiculous asking this question, I've always suffered from sinusitis problems, right now my nose is dry but clogged and I can't breath properly, the problem is that I have this weird feeling at the back of my head, it feel weird I can't even explain the feeling, sometimes it feels cold and sometimes I get some headaches (that could be caused by sinusitis problems) but I'm not sure, I have a history of going to the doctor a lot because I have always had this huge fear of cancer (my grandfather died from cancer, he used to smoke, my aunt was a healthy person and she died from cancer too) it all started with the fear of having something in my back, I had a few studies and they all came back negative, then I started worrying about a testicular tumor, I had various testicular ultrasounds done and they all came back normal, now I have this feeling in my head and it's making me so worried, I mean, I don't have symptons of a brain tumor, I already checked, I'm not vomiting, getting extreme headaches, feeling lightheaded, involuntary movements, seizures etc.. but still..

You have hypochondria and this is just another episode. I also suffer with sinusitis and I know that it can cause a great many symptoms that don't seem related to our sinuses at all. My ENT said that when our sinuses are inflammed, the pressure that results radiates throughout our entire head. It can cause headaches, earaches, eye pain and a feeling that our eyes are bulging, watery eyes, sharp, shooting pains that can feel almost like migraine pain from the vasoconstriction of blood vessels, a feeling that it's difficut to swallow..........well, his list of woes went on and on. I have, in the past 30+ years experienced most of them. No brain tumors, no cancer......just a lousy "SDS." (Snot Disposal System) I've had X-rays and two MRIs which confirms my sinus cavities are too small and don't drain well. I've also had my sinuses "rotor rooted" a few times and I hope you never have to have that done! Imagine sticking a garden hose up your snout and turning it on full pressure. I wear a nose plug when I shower now thanks to that experience. A Netti Pot is great, but recent newpaper articles have scared most of to death about using them. Apparently some people were getting infected with brain eating bacteria. Cool, eh? They say now that it's perfectly OK to use them as long as you use distilled water. Anyway, perhaps a visit to an ENT will help you with your sinus problems, and you may want to give some serious thought to getting into some therapy to deal with your hypochondria. It's a really crappy way to live your life..........wasting so much time worrying about all your aches and pains and that's time you will never get back. Besides, if something is going to happen, it's going to happen whether you worry about it or not, so why not worry about it when (and if) it actually happens? Did you also know that the things we worry the most about never happen? It's true.
Just a tip, stay OFF the symptom sites on the Net. Bad, bad place for hypochondriacs to hang out. Not good. No siree bob.  
Don't lose any more time to hypochondriacal fear. Be the master of your own domaine! LOL
